Introduction

Thanks for using iFly Jets: The 737NG!

We have taken two years of development for iFly Jets: The 737NG. It is an add-on software for Microsoft® Flight simulator X™ (FSX). With our core developer Mr.Jiangwei's hard work, iFly Jets: The 737NG is now able to simulate most of system components that are on real Boeing 737NG airplane. They included Air Systems, Automatic Flight Control System, Communication System, Electrical Systems, Fire Protection System, Flight Controls Systems, Flight Instruments, Flight Management Systems, Fuel Systems, Hydraulics Systems, TCAS, GPWS and many more.

Due to the limitation of FSX, some system functionalities couldn't be realized completely. For example, there's no weather radar implementation on iFly Jets: The 737NG. Since the overwhelming complexity of 3D 737NG models, only the cockpit has modeled in virtual mode.

Because we took this development seriously and tried to be hardcore enough just like very other fans of Boeing 737NG, this simulator should deserves a comprehensive manual that can fully describe each part of system components. Thus during the time of manual and documents writing, we have referenced the real Boeing 737NG flight manuals in order to provide rich-content documents to the end users. And this is our yet another purpose that while users can fully simulate the cockpit of Boeing 737NG on PCs, they also find commons from flight manuals between real ones and ours.

Normal Procedures Operation Manual Introduction

The iFly Developer Team Page 7

Normal Procedures Chapter NP Introduction Section 11

Introduction This chapter gives: • an introduction to the normal procedures philosophy and assumptions • step by step normal procedures

Normal Procedures Philosophy and Assumptions Normal procedures are done on each flight.

Normal procedures assume: • all systems operate normally • the full use of all automated features (LNAV, VNAV, autoland, autopilot, and

autothrottle).

Autopilot Flight Director System and Flight Management System Monitoring When the autopilot, flight director, or autothrottle are in use and a mode change is selected or is scheduled to occur, the annunciation must be verified on the display. Airplane course, vertical path, and speed must always be monitored. In LNAV and VNAV, all airplane course, vertical path, thrust, and speed changes must be verified.

Control Display Unit (CDU) Procedures CDU manipulations should be accomplished prior to high workload periods such as departure, arrival, or holding. During high workload periods, using autopilot modes such as heading select, flight level change, and the altitude and speed intervention features, may be more efficient than entering complex route modifications into the CDU.

The iFly Developer Team Page 43

Supplementary Procedures Chapter SP Adverse Weather Section 16

Introduction Airplane operation in adverse weather conditions may require additional considerations due to the effects of extreme turbulence. Procedures in this section supplement normal procedures and should be observed when applicable.

Turbulence During flight in light to moderate turbulence, the autopilot and/or autothrottle may remain engaged unless performance is objectionable. Increased thrust lever activity can be expected when encountering wind, temperature changes and large pressure changes. Short–time airspeed excursions of 10 to 15 knots can be expected.

Passenger signs...........................................................................................................ON Advise passengers to fasten seat belts prior to entering areas of reported or anticipated turbulence. Instruct flight attendants to check that all passengers' seat belts are fastened.

Severe Turbulence Yaw Damper...............................................................................................................ON

Autothrottle......................................................................................................Disengage

AUTOPILOT...................................................................................................Disengage

Thrust..........................................................................................................................Set Set thrust as needed for the phase of flight.

Air Systems Operation Manual Bleed Air System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 91

Air Systems Chapter 2 Bleed Air System Description Section 20

Introduction Air for the bleed air system can be supplied by the engines, APU, or an external air source.

Bleed air is used for: • air conditioning • pressurization • wing and engine anti-ice • engine starting

Engine Bleed System Supply Engine bleed air comes from either the high stage or the low stage engine sections. After the engine bleed air switches are selected ON, the engine bleed air valves are armed.

Engine Bleed Air Valves The engine bleed air valve permits engine bleed air to flow to the bleed air duct. The valve closes automatically when the engine is shut down. The engine bleed air valve is DC controlled and pressure operated.

Isolation Valve The isolation valve isolates the left and right sides of the bleed air duct during normal operations. The isolation valve is AC operated.

With the isolation valve switch in AUTO, both engine bleed air switches are ON, and both air conditioning pack switches are AUTO or HIGH, and the isolation valve is closed. The isolation valve opens if either engine bleed air switch or air conditioning pack switch is positioned OFF.

External Bleed System Supply External connectors are provided to connect a ground source of high pressure air directly to the bleed air duct.

APU Bleed Air Valve The APU bleed air valve permits APU bleed air to flow to the bleed air duct. The valve closes automatically when the APU is shut down. APU bleed air is used primarily during ground operations for air conditioning pack operation and engine starting. In flight, APU bleed air is available below approximately 17,000 ft.

Air Systems Operation Manual Air Conditioning System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 92

Air Systems Chapter 2 Air Conditioning System Description Section 30 [Option – 600/700/700C/700ER/BBJ]

Introduction The air conditioning system controls the interior environment of the airplane for flight crew, passengers, and equipment.

Air Conditioning Pack Each air condition pack is controlled by its own pack valve in order to control the flow of bleed air from the main bleed air duct. Normally the left pack uses bleed air from engine No. 1 and the right pack uses bleed air from engine No. 2.

Airflow Control With both air conditioning pack switches in AUTO and both packs operating, the packs provide “normal air flow”. If one pack is not operating, the other pack automatically switches to “high air flow”.

Ram Air System The ram air system provides cooling air for the heat exchangers. Operation of the ram air system is automatically controlled by the packs through operation of ram air inlet doors. On the ground, or during slow flight with the flaps not fully retracted, the ram air inlet doors move to the full open position for maximum cooling. In normal cruise, the doors modulate between open and closed. A RAM DOOR FULL OPEN light illuminates whenever a ram door is fully open.

Air Mix Valves The two air mix valves for each pack control hot and cold air according to the setting of the CONT CABIN or PASS CABIN temperature selector. In the automatic temperature mode, the automatic temperature controller operates the air mix valves.

Air Systems Operation Manual Air Conditioning System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 93

Air Systems Chapter 2 Air Conditioning System Description Section 31 [Option – 800/900/900ER/BBJ2/BBJ3]

Introduction The air conditioning system provides temperature controlled air by air conditioning packs.

Air Conditioning Pack Each air condition pack is controlled by its own pack valve in order to control the flow of bleed air from the main bleed air duct. Normally the left pack uses bleed air from engine No. 1 and the right pack uses bleed air from engine No. 2.

Airflow Control With both air conditioning pack switches in AUTO and both packs operating, the packs provide “normal air flow”. If one pack is not operating, the other pack automatically switches to “high air flow”.

Ram Air System The ram air system provides cooling air for the heat exchangers. Operation of the ram air system is automatically controlled by the packs through operation of ram air inlet doors. On the ground, or during slow flight with the flaps not fully retracted, the ram air inlet doors move to the full open position for maximum cooling. In normal cruise, the doors modulate between open and closed. A RAM DOOR FULL OPEN light illuminates whenever a ram door is fully open.

Zone Temperature Control There are three zones: flight deck, forward cabin and aft cabin. Desired zone temperature is set by adjusting the individual Temperature Selectors. The selector range is approximately 65°F (18°C) to 85°F (30°C).

Air Systems Operation Manual Pressurization System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 94

Air Systems Chapter 2 Pressurization System Description Section 40

Introduction Cabin pressurization is controlled by adjusting the discharge of conditioned cabin air through the outflow valves. During all phases of airplane operation, the cabin pressure control system controls the cabin pressurization.

Cabin Pressure Controller Cabin altitude is normally controlled by the cabin pressure controller. The upper limit is at the cabin altitude of 8,000 feet at the airplane maximum certified ceiling of 41,000 feet. The cabin pressure controller controls cabin pressure in the following modes: • AUTO – Automatic pressurization control in the normal mode of operation. • ALTN – Automatic pressurization control in the alternate mode of operation. • MAN – Manual control of the pressurization system.

Auto Mode Operation In the AUTO or ALTN mode, the pressurization control panel is used to preset two altitudes into the auto controllers: • FLT ALT (flight or cruise altitude). • LAND ALT (landing or destination airport altitude).

In the air, the auto controller maintains a proportional pressure differential between the airplane and cabin altitude.

An amber AUTO FAIL light illuminates if any of the following conditions occurs: • Loss of DC power • Controller fault • Excessive differential pressure (> 8.75 psi) • Excessive rate of cabin pressure change (±2000 sea level feet/minute) • High cabin altitude (above 15,800 feet).

Moving the pressurization mode selector to the ALTN position extinguishes the AUTO FAIL light, however the ALTN light remains illuminated to indicate single channel operation.

High Altitude Landing When the high altitude landing system is engaged and the actual landing altitude is set, the controller brings the cabin altitude to the landing airport elevation when the descent mode is activated. Upon departure from a high altitude airport, the system returns to normal operation as the cabin descends through 8,000 feet.

4.LNAV Switch Push – • commands AFDS roll to intercept and track the active FMC route • annunciates LNAV as roll mode and illuminates LNAV switch light.

LNAV Mode: The FMC controls AFDS roll to intercept and track active FMC route. Active route is entered and modified through FMC CDUs and can include SIDs, STARs, and instrument approaches.

LNAV arming criteria on the ground: • origin runway in flight plan • active route entered in FMC • track of first leg within 5 degrees of runway heading • LNAV selected prior to TO/GA.

• LNAV guidance becomes active at 50 feet AGL

LNAV engagement criteria in flight: • active route entered in FMC • within 3 NM of active route, LNAV engagement occurs with any airplane heading • outside of 3 NM, airplane must:

• be on intercept course of 90 degrees or less • intercept route segment before active waypoint.

LNAV automatically disconnects for following reasons: • reaching end of active route • reaching a route discontinuity • intercepting a selected approach course in VOR LOC or APP modes (VOR/LOC

armed) • selecting HDG SEL

5.VOR Localizer (LOC) Switch Push – • commands AFDS roll to capture and track selected VOR or LOC course • annunciates VOR/LOC armed or engaged as roll mode and illuminates VOR LOC

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 123

Automatic Flight Chapter 4 System Description Section 20

General The automatic flight system (AFS) consists of the autopilot flight director system (AFDS) and the autothrottle (A/T). The flight management computer (FMC) provides N1 limits and target N1 for the A/T and command airspeeds for the A/T and AFDS.

The AFDS and A/T are controlled using the AFDS mode control panel (MCP) and the FMC. Normally, the AFDS and A/T are controlled automatically by the FMC to fly an optimized lateral and vertical flight path through climb, cruise and descent.

AFS mode status is displayed on the flight mode annunciation on each pilot’s primary display.

Autopilot Flight Director System (AFDS) The AFDS is a dual system consisting of two individual flight control computers (FCCs) and a single mode control panel.

MCP Mode Selector Switches The mode selector switches are pushed to select desired command modes for the AFDS and A/T. The switch illuminates to indicate mode selection and that the mode can be deselected by pushing the switch again. When engagement of a mode would conflict with current AFS operation, pushing the mode selector switch has no effect.

Autopilot Engagement Criteria Each A/P can be engaged by pushing a separate CMD or CWS engage switch. A/P engagement in CMD or CWS is inhibited unless all of following conditions are met: • no force is being applied to the control wheel • the STAB TRIM AUTOPILOT cutout switch must be in the NORMAL position. • the inertial reference data from the ADIRU must be valid • the IRS transfer switch must be in the NORMAL position to engage the autopilot.

Unless approach (APP) mode is engaged, only one A/P can be engaged at a given time. Approach mode allows both A/Ps to be engaged at the same time. Dual A/P operation provides control through landing flare and touchdown or an automatic go–around.

In single A/P operation, full automatic flare and touchdown capability and A/P go–around capability are not available.

Autopilot Disengagement The A/P automatically disengages when any of the following occurs: • pushing either A/P disengage switch • pushing either Takeoff/Go-around (TO/GA) switch with a single A/P engaged in

CWS or CMD; • below 2000 feet RA or, • with flaps not up or, • G/S engaged

• pushing either Takeoff/Go-around (TO/GA) switch with a single A/P engaged in CWS or CMD above 2000 feet RA with flaps not up or G/S engaged.

• pushing either TO/GA switch after touchdown with both A/Ps engaged in CMD • pushing an illuminated A/P ENGAGE switch • pushing the A/P DISENGAGE bar down • moving the STAB TRIM AUTOPILOT cutout switch to CUTOUT • moving the IRS transfer switch to BOTH ON 1 or BOTH ON 2 • either left or right IRS system failure • loss of electrical power • loss of respective hydraulic system pressure.

Flight Director Display Turning a F/D switch ON displays command bars on the respective attitude indicator if command pitch and roll modes are engaged. If command pitch and roll modes are not engaged, the F/D command bars do not appear.

F/D commands operate in the same command modes as the A/P except: • the takeoff mode is a F/D only mode • the F/D has no landing flare capability. F/D command bars retract from view at

approximately 50 feet RA on an ILS approach.

AFDS Status Annunciation The following AFDS status annunciations are displayed in the A/P status display located above the attitude indicator on the outboard display unit: • CMD (one or both autopilots are engaged) • FD (the flight director is ON and the autopilot is either OFF or engaged in CWS) • CWS P (pitch mode engaged in CWS) • CWS R (roll mode engaged in CWS)

[Option – EFIS/MAP] • 1 CH (for single A/P ILS approach, annunciates after localizer capture and remains on for entire approach.).

[Option – PFD/ND] • SINGLE CH (for single A/P ILS approach, annunciates after localizer capture and remains on for entire approach.).

AFDS Flight Mode Annunciations The flight mode annunciations are displayed just above the attitude indicator on the outboard display unit. The mode annunciations, from left to right, are:

[Option – EFIS/MAP] • autothrottle • pitch • roll.

[Option – PFD/ND] • autothrottle • roll

• pitch.

Engaged or captured modes are shown at the top of the flight mode annunciation boxes in large green letters. Armed modes are shown in smaller white letters at the bottom of the flight mode annunciation boxes.

Autothrottle Modes

• N1 – the autothrottle maintains thrust at the selected N1 limit displayed on the thrust mode display, including full go-around N1 limit

• GA – the autothrottle maintains thrust at reduced go–around setting • RETARD – displayed while autothrottle moves thrust levers to the aft stop.

RETARD mode is followed by ARM mode • FMC SPD – the autothrottle maintains speed commanded by the FMC. The

autothrottle is limited to the N1 value shown on the thrust mode display • MCP SPD – the autothrottle maintains speed set in the MCP IAS/MACH display.

The autothrottle is limited to the N1 value shown on the thrust mode display • THR HLD – the thrust lever autothrottle servos are inhibited; the pilot can set the

thrust levers manually • ARM – no autothrottle mode engaged. The thrust lever autothrottle servos are

inhibited; the pilot can set thrust levers manually. Minimum speed protection is provided

Pitch Modes

• TO/GA – Takeoff Engaged for takeoff by turning both F/D switches ON and pushing TO/GA switch. Both F/Ds must be ON to engage TO/GA prior to starting takeoff. The AFDS commands pitch attitude in the following order:

• 10 degrees nose down until 60 knots IAS • 15 degrees nose up after 60 knots IAS • 15 degrees nose up after lift–off until a sufficient climb rate is acquired. Then,

pitch is commanded to maintain MCP speed plus 20 knots.

In takeoff, the flight director commands show automatically even if the flight director switches are in the OFF position. This is the pop-up mode. It occurs when these conditions are true:

• The pilot pushes a TO/GA switch • The airspeed is more than 80 knots.

The F/Ds stay in the pop-up mode for 150 seconds after the airspeed reaches 80 knots.

• TO/GA – Go–around Engaged for go–around by pushing the TO/GA switch under the following conditions:

• inflight below 2000 feet radio altitude • inflight above 2000 feet radio altitude with flaps not up or G/S captured • not in takeoff mode • either F/D ON or OFF.

When engaged, the F/Ds command roll to hold the ground track, and 15 degrees nose up pitch.

Page 132: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 126

• VNAV (engaged) – VNAV is engaged by pushing the VNAV switch. With a VNAV mode engaged, the FMC commands AFDS pitch and A/T modes to fly the vertical profile • VNAV SPD – the AFDS maintains the FMC speed displayed on the airspeed

indicator and/or the CDU CLIMB or DESCENT pages • VNAV PTH – the AFDS maintains FMC altitude or descent path with pitch

commands. • VNAV ALT – when a conflict occurs between the VNAV profile and the MCP

altitude, the airplane levels at the MCP altitude and the pitch flight mode annunciation becomes VNAV ALT. VNAV ALT maintains altitude.

• V/S (armed) – V/S mode can be engaged by moving Vertical Speed thumbwheel • V/S (engaged) – commands pitch to hold selected vertical speed • ALT ACQ – transition maneuver entered automatically from a V/S, LVL CHG, or

VNAV climb or descent to selected MCP altitude. Engages but does not annunciate during VNAV transition

• ALT HOLD – commands pitch to hold MCP selected altitude or barometric altitude at which ALT HOLD switch was pushed

• MCP SPD – pitch commands maintain IAS/MACH window airspeed or Mach • G/S (armed) – the AFDS is armed for G/S capture • G/S (engaged) – the AFDS follows the ILS glideslope • FLARE (armed) – during a dual A/P ILS approach, FLARE is displayed after LOC

and G/S capture and below 1500 feet RA. The second A/P couples with the flight controls and A/P go–around mode arms

• FLARE (engaged) – during a dual A/P ILS approach, flare engages at 50 feet radio altitude. FLARE accomplishes the autoland flare maneuver.

Roll Modes

• LNAV (engaged) – the AFDS intercepts and tracks the active FMC route. Either of the following capture criteria must be met: • on any heading and within 3 NM of the active route segment • if outside of 3 NM of active route segment, airplane must be on an intercept

course of 90 degrees or less and intercept the route segment before the active waypoint.

• HDG SEL – the airplane is turning to, or is on the heading selected in the MCP Heading Display

• VOR/LOC (armed) – AFDS is armed to capture selected VOR or LOC COURSE • VOR/LOC (engaged) – AFDS tracks selected VOR course or tracks selected

localizer course along the inbound front course bearing.

Autopilot Control Wheel Steering

CWS Engage Switch Selected Pushing a CWS engage switch engages the A/P pitch and roll axes in the CWS mode and displays CWS P and CWS R on the FMAs.

With CWS engaged, the A/P maneuvers the airplane in response to control pressures applied by either pilot. When control pressure is released, the A/P holds existing attitude.

Page 133: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 127

If aileron pressure is released with 6 degrees or less bank, the A/P rolls the wings level and holds existing heading. This feature is inhibited when any of the following conditions exists: • below 1,500 feet RA with the landing gear down • after F/D VOR capture with TAS 250 knots or less • after F/D LOC capture in the APP mode.

Pitch CWS with a CMD Engage Switch Selected The pitch axis engages in CWS while the roll axis is in CMD when: • a command pitch mode has not been selected or was deselected • A/P pitch has been manually overridden with control column force. This manual

pitch override is inhibited in the APP mode with both A/Ps engaged.

CWS P is annunciated on the FMAs while this mode is engaged. Command pitch modes can then be selected.

When approaching a selected altitude in CWS P with a CMD engage switch selected, CWS P changes to ALT ACQ. When at the selected altitude, ALT HOLD engages.

If pitch is manually overridden while in ALT HOLD at the selected altitude, ALT HOLD changes to CWS P. If control force is released within 250 feet of the selected altitude, CWS P changes to ALT ACQ, the airplane returns to the selected altitude, and ALT HOLD engages. If the elevator force is held until more than 250 feet from the selected altitude, pitch remains in CWS P.

Roll CWS with a CMD Engage Switch Selected The roll axis engages in CWS while the pitch axis is in CMD when: • a command roll mode has not been selected or was deselected • A/P roll has been manually overridden with control wheel force. This manual roll

override is inhibited in the APP mode with both A/Ps engaged.

CWS R is annunciated on the FMAs while this mode is engaged.

CWS R with a CMD engage switch illuminated can be used to capture a selected radio course while the VOR/LOC or APP mode is armed. Upon intercepting the radial or localizer, the F/D and A/P annunciations change from CWS R to VOR/LOC engaged, and the A/P tracks the selected course.

Autothrottle System The A/T system provides automatic thrust control from the start of takeoff through climb, cruise, descent, approach and go–around or landing.

Autothrottle Engagement Moving the A/T Arm switch to ARM, arms the A/T for engagement in the N1, MCP SPD or FMC SPD mode.

A general summary of A/T mode engagement is as follows: • A/T SPD or N1 modes automatically engage when AFDS command pitch modes

become engaged • engaging LVL CHG or VNAV climb modes automatically engages the A/T N1

Page 134: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 128

mode • engaging LVL CHG or VNAV descent modes automatically engages the A/T in

RETARD and then ARM when thrust is at idle • if not in a VNAV mode, engagement of ALT ACQ or ALT HOLD automatically

engages the A/T in the MCP SPD mode; otherwise the A/T remains in FMC SPD • engagement of G/S capture automatically engages the A/T in the MCP SPD mode

Autothrottle Disengagement Any of the following conditions or actions disengages the A/T: • moving the A/T Arm switch to OFF • pushing either A/T Disengage switch • an A/T system fault is detected • two seconds have elapsed since landing touchdown

A/T disengagement is followed by A/T Arm switch releasing to OFF and flashing red A/T Disengage lights. The A/T Disengage lights do not illuminate when the A/T automatically disengages after landing touchdown.

Automatic Flight Operations The phases of flight for automatic flight operations are: • Takeoff and climb • Approach and landing • Enroute • Go–around

Automatic Flight Takeoff and Climb Takeoff is a flight director only function of the TO/GA mode. Flight director pitch and roll commands are displayed and the autothrottle maintains takeoff N1 thrust limit as selected from the FMC. The autopilot may be engaged after takeoff.

F/D must be ON to engage the takeoff mode prior to starting the takeoff. The F/D takeoff mode is engaged by pushing the TO/GA switch on either thrust lever. The FMAs display FD as the A/P status, TO/GA as the pitch mode, and blank for the roll mode.

During takeoff, pushing a TO/GA switch engages the autothrottle in the N1 mode. The A/T annunciation changes from ARM to N1 and thrust levers advance toward takeoff thrust.

The F/D can also be engaged in the takeoff mode with the F/D switches off. If a TO/GA switch is pushed after 80 knots below 2000 feet AGL and prior to 150 seconds after lift–off, the F/D command bars automatically appear for both pilots.

During takeoff, prior to 60 KIAS: • the pitch command is 10 degrees nose down • the roll command is wings level • the autothrottle is engaged in the N1 mode • the FMAs display N1 for the autothrottle mode, TO/GA for the pitch mode, and

blank for the roll mode.

At 60 knots, the F/D pitch commands 15 degrees nose up.

At 84 knots, the A/T mode annunciates THR HLD.

Page 135: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 129

At lift–off: • the pitch command continues at 15 degrees until sufficient climb rate is acquired.

Pitch then commands MCP speed (normally V2) plus 20 knots • if an engine failure occurs during takeoff, the pitch command target speed is:

• V2, if airspeed is below V2 • existing speed, if airspeed is between V2 and V2 + 20 • V2 + 20, if airspeed is above V2 + 20

• the roll command maintains wings level.

After lift–off: • the A/T remains in THR HLD until 800 feet RA. A/T annunciation then changes

from THR HLD to ARM and reduction to climb thrust can be made by pushing the N1 switch

• automatic thrust reduction to climb power occurs when VNAV, ALT ACQ or ALT HOLD is engaged.

• automatic reduction to climb thrust occurs upon reaching the selected thrust reduction altitude which is shown on the FMC CDU TAKEOFF REF page 2/2 during preflight.

To terminate the takeoff mode below 400 feet RA, both F/D switches must be turned OFF. Above 400 feet RA, selection of another pitch mode or engaging an autopilot will terminate the takeoff mode; other F/D roll modes can be also selected.

Automatic Flight En Route The autopilot and/or the flight director can be used after takeoff to fly a lateral navigation track (LNAV) and a vertical navigation track (VNAV) provided by the FMC.

Other roll modes available are: • VOR course (VOR/LOC) • heading select (HDG SEL).

Other pitch modes available are: • altitude hold (ALT HOLD) • level change (MCP SPD) • vertical speed (V/S).

Automatic Flight Approach and Landing The VOR/LOC switch arms the AFDS for VOR or localizer tracking. Descent may be accomplished using VNAV, LVL CHG, or V/S. VOR/LOC, LNAV, or HDG SEL may be used for the roll mode.

The AFDS provides guidance for single or dual A/P precision approaches. The approach mode arms the AFDS to capture and track the localizer and glideslope.

Localizer and Glideslope Armed After setting the localizer frequency and course, pushing the APP switch selects the APP mode. The APP switch illuminates and VOR/LOC and G/S annunciate armed. The APP mode permits selecting the second A/P to engage in CMD. This arms the second A/P for automatic engagement after LOC and G/S capture and when descent below 1500 RA occurs.

Page 136: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 130

Glideslope (G/S) capture is inhibited prior to localizer capture.

Localizer Capture [Option – EFIS/MAP] The LOC capture point is variable and depends on intercept angle and rate of closure. Upon LOC capture, VOR/LOC annunciates captured, 1 CH is annunciated for A/P status, the previous roll mode disengages and the airplane turns to track the LOC.

[Option – PFD/ND] The LOC capture point is variable and depends on intercept angle and rate of closure. Upon LOC capture, VOR/LOC annunciates captured, SINGLE CH is annunciated for A/P status, the previous roll mode disengages and the airplane turns to track the LOC.

Glideslope Capture Glideslope capture is inhibited prior to localizer capture.

The G/S can be captured from above or below. Capture occurs at 2/5 dot and results in the following: • G/S annunciates captured • previous pitch mode disengages • APP light extinguishes if localizer has also been captured • airplane pitch tracks the G/S • GA displayed on thrust mode display (N1 thrust limit).

After VOR/LOC and G/S are both captured, the APP mode can be exited by: • pushing a TO/GA switch • disengaging A/P and turning off both F/D switches • retuning a VHF NAV receiver.

After LOC and G/S Capture Shortly after capturing LOC or G/S and below 1500 feet RA: • the second A/P couples with the flight controls • FLARE armed is annunciated [Option – EFIS/MAP] • the 1 CH annunciation extinguishes [Option – PFD/ND] • the SINGLE CH annunciation extinguishes • A/P go–around mode arms but is not annunciated. Note: After localizer and glideslope capture during a dual autopilot approach, CWS

cannot be engaged by manually overriding pitch and roll. Manual override of autopilots causes autopilot disengagement.

800 Feet Radio Altitude The second A/P must be engaged in CMD by 800 feet RA to execute a dual channel A/P approach. Otherwise, CMD engagement of the second A/P is inhibited.

Flare The A/P flare maneuver starts at approximately 50 feet RA and is completed at

Page 137: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Automatic Flight Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 131

touchdown: • FLARE engaged is annunciated and F/D command bars retract. • the A/T begins retarding thrust at approximately 27 feet RA so as to reach idle at

touchdown. A/T FMA annunciates RETARD. • the A/T automatically disengages approximately 2 seconds after touchdown. • the A/P must be manually disengaged after touchdown.

Approach (APP) Mode Single A/P A single A/P ILS approach can be executed by engaging only one A/P in CMD after pushing the APP mode select switch. Single A/P approach operation is the same as dual, with the following exceptions: • automatic flare is for dual channel approach, however, since it is part of the A/P

design, it can function during single channel approaches. The flare mode does not annunciate on the FMA in a single channel approach. The autopilot should be disengaged manually when the airplane reaches the decision height.

[Option – EFIS/MAP] • A/P status of 1 CH is annunciated for the entire approach after localizer capture [Option – PFD/ND] • A/P status of SINGLE CH is annunciated for the entire approach after localizer

capture • an A/P go–around is not available.

Go–Around Go–Around (GA) mode is engaged by pushing either TO/GA switch. The A/P go–around requires dual A/P operation and is armed when FLARE armed is annunciated. If both A/Ps are not operating, a manual F/D go–around is available.

With the A/T Arm switch at ARM, the A/T go–around mode is armed: • when descending below 2000 feet RA • when above 2000 feet RA with flaps not up or G/S captured • with or without the AFDS engaged.

A/P Go–Around The A/P GA mode requires dual A/P operation and is available after FLARE armed is annunciated and prior to the A/P sensing touchdown.

With push of either TO/GA switch: • A/T (if armed) engages in GA and the A/T Engaged Mode annunciation on the

FMA indicates GA • the A/T advances to the full go–around N1 limit. • pitch mode engages in TO/GA and the Pitch Engaged Mode annunciation on the

FMA indicates TO/GA • F/D pitch commands 15 degrees nose up until reaching programmed rate of climb.

F/D pitch then commands target airspeed for each flap setting based on maximum takeoff weight calculations

• F/D roll commands hold current ground track. The Roll Engaged Mode annunciation on the FMA is blank

• the IAS/Mach display blanks

• the command airspeed cursor automatically moves to a target airspeed for the existing flap position based on maximum takeoff weight calculations.

TO/GA mode termination from A/P go–around: • below 400 feet RA, the AFDS remains in the go–around mode unless both A/Ps and

F/Ds are disengaged • above 400 feet RA, select a different pitch or roll mode.

• if the roll mode is changed first: • the selected mode engages in single A/P roll operation and is controlled by

the A/P which was first in CMD • pitch remains in dual A/P control in TO/GA mode.

• if the pitch mode is changed first: • the selected mode engages in single A/P pitch operation and is controlled

by the A/P which was first in CMD • the second A/P disengages • the roll mode engages in CWS R.

• the A/T GA mode is terminated when: • another pitch mode is selected • ALT ACQ annunciates engaged.

F/D Go–Around If both A/Ps are not engaged, a manual F/D only go–around is available under the following conditions: • inflight below 2000 feet RA • inflight above 2000 feet RA with flaps not up or G/S captured • not in takeoff mode.

With the first push of either TO/GA switch: • A/T (if armed) engages in GA and advances thrust toward the full go–around N1

limit. The A/T Engaged Mode annunciation on the FMA indicates GA • autopilot (if engaged) disengages • pitch mode engages in TO/GA and the Pitch Engaged Mode annunciation on the

FMA indicates TO/GA • F/D pitch commands 15 degrees nose up until reaching programmed rate of climb.

F/D pitch then commands target airspeed for each flap setting based on maximum takeoff weight calculations

• F/D roll commands approach ground track at time of engagement. The Roll Engaged Mode annunciation on the FMA is blank

• the IAS/Mach display blanks • the command airspeed cursor automatically moves to a target airspeed for the

existing flap position based on maximum takeoff weight calculations.

TO/GA mode termination from F/D go–around: • below 400 feet RA, both F/D switches must be turned off. • above 400 feet RA, select a different pitch or roll mode.

• if the roll mode is changed first: • F/D roll engages in the selected mode • F/D pitch mode remains in TO/GA.

Electrical Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 148

Electrical Chapter 6 System Description Section 20

Introduction Single Battery [Option – 600/700/700C/700ER] Primary electrical power is provided by two engine integrated drive generators (IDGs). Each IDG supplies its own bus system in normal operation. Transformer rectifier (TR) units supply DC power. The battery also provides backup power for the AC and DC standby system. The APU operates a generator and can supply power to both AC transfer busses on the ground or in flight.

Dual Battery [Option – 800/900/900ER/BBJ/BBJ2/BBJ3] Primary electrical power is provided by two engine integrated drive generators (IDGs). Each IDG supplies its own bus system in normal operation. Transformer rectifier (TR) units supply DC power. The main and auxiliary batteries also provide backup power for the AC and DC standby system. The APU operates a generator and can supply power to both AC transfer busses on the ground or in flight.

Principles of operation for the 737 electrical system • There is no paralleling of the AC sources of power. • The source of power being connected to a transfer bus automatically disconnects an

existing source..

Electrical Power Generation Engine Generators Primary power is obtained from two engine IDGs. The IDG maintains a constant generator speed throughout the normal operating range of the engine.

APU Generator The APU generator can supply power to both AC transfer busses on the ground or in flight.

External Ground Power An external AC power receptacle allows the use of an external power source. When connected, external power can supply power to both transfer busses.

AC Power System Each AC power system consists of a transfer bus, a main bus, and two galley busses. Transfer bus 1 also supplies power to the AC standby bus. If the AC source powering either transfer bus fails or is disconnected, the transfer bus can be powered by any available source through the tie bus with the bus tie breakers (BTBs).

Page 155: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Electrical Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 149

Bus Tie System Either generator or the APU can supply power to both transfer busses. If the BUS TRANS switch is in the AUTO position and the source powering the transfer bus is disconnected or fails, the source powering the opposite transfer bus automatically picks up the unpowered transfer bus through the BTBs.

DC Power System DC power is supplied by three TR units, which are energized from the AC transfer busses. The battery provides DC power to loads required to be operative when no other source is available.

On the ground, an amber ELEC light comes on to indicate that a fault exists in DC power system or standby power system. The ELEC light is inhibited in flight.

Transformer Rectifier Units The TRs convert AC to DC, and are identified as TR1, TR2, and TR3.

TR1 receives AC power from transfer bus 1. TR2 receives AC power from transfer bus 2. TR3 normally receives AC power from transfer bus 2 and has a backup source of AC power from transfer bus 1.

Battery Power Single Battery [Option – 600/700/700ER/700C] The battery can supply part of the DC system. Battery charging is automatically controlled. An amber BAT DISCHARGE light comes on when excessive battery discharge is detected.

Dual Battery [Option – 800/900/900ER/BBJ/BBJ2/BBJ3] The batteries can supply part of the DC system. The auxiliary battery operates in parallel with the main battery when the battery is powering the standby system. Battery charging is automatically controlled. An amber BAT DISCHARGE light comes on when excessive battery discharge is detected.

Standby Power System The standby system provides AC and DC power to essential systems in the event of loss of all engines or APU–driven AC power.

During normal operation the guarded standby power switch is in AUTO and the battery switch is ON. This configuration provides alternate power sources in case of partial power loss as well as complete transfer to battery power if all normal power is lost. Under normal conditions the AC standby bus is powered from AC transfer bus 1. The DC standby bus is powered by TR1, TR2, and TR3; the battery bus is powered by TR3.

Engines, APU Operation Manual Engine System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 180

Engines, APU Chapter 7 Engine System Description Section 20

Introduction The airplane is powered by two CFM56–7 engines. A dual–channel electronic engine control (EEC) regulates each engine. The EEC monitors autothrottle and flight crew inputs to automatically set engine thrust.

Engine Indications [Option – Side by side display] Engine indications are displayed on the upper display unit (DU). If a failure is detected on the upper DU, the engine indications automatically shift to the lower DU. The engine indications can also be manually selected to either the Captain’s or First Officer’s inboard DU, or the lower DU, using the respective display select panel.

Engine Indications [Option – Over/Under display] Primary and secondary engine indications are provided. Engine indications are displayed on the upper display unit (DU), lower DU or the Captain’s or First Officer’s inboard DU.

Primary Engine Indications N1 and EGT are the primary engine indications. The primary engine indications are normally displayed on the upper DU. If that unit fails, the display automatically moves to the lower DU. The primary engine indications can also be manually selected to either the Captain’s or First Officer’s inboard DU, or the lower DU, using the respective display select panel.

Secondary Engine Indications N2, fuel flow, oil pressure, oil temperature, oil quantity, and engine vibration are the secondary engine indications. The secondary engine indications, are manually selected to either the Captain’s or First Officer’s inboard DU, or the lower DU, using the respective display select panel and the ENG switch on the engine display control panel.

The secondary engine indications are automatically displayed when: • the displays initially receive electrical power • in flight when an engine start lever is moved to CUTOFF • in flight when an engine fails • a secondary engine parameter is exceeded.

Normal Display Format N1, EGT, and N2 are displayed as both digital readouts and round dial/moving pointer indications. The digital readouts display numerical values while the moving pointers indicate relative value.

Oil pressure, oil temperature, and engine vibration indications are both digital

Page 187: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Engines, APU Operation Manual Engine System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 181

readouts and vertical indication/moving pointers. Fuel flow and oil quantity are digital readouts only.

Compact Display Primary and secondary engine indications are displayed in compact format on the upper DU when the secondary engine indications are selected for display (manually or automatically) and the lower DU is unavailable.

Electronic Engine Control (EEC) Each engine has a electronic engine control (EEC). The EEC uses thrust lever inputs to automatically control thrust. N1 is used by the EEC to set thrust in two control modes: normal and alternate. Manual selection of the control mode can be made with the EEC switches on engine panel.

EEC Normal Mode In the normal mode, the EEC uses sensed flight conditions and bleed air demand to calculate N1 thrust ratings.

EEC Alternate Mode The EEC can operate in either of two alternate modes, soft or hard. If required signals are not available to operate in the normal mode, the EEC automatically changes to the soft alternate mode. When this occurs, the ALTN switch illuminates and the ON indication remains visible. The soft alternate mode remains until the hard alternate mode is entered by manually selecting ALTN with the EEC switch on the aft overhead panel.

Engine Start System Starter operation requires pressurized air and electrical power.

In the GRD position, the engine start switch uses battery power to close the engine bleed air valve and open the start valve to allow pressure to rotate the starter. When the start valve opens, an amber START VALVE OPEN alert is provided on the upper display unit. When the engine accelerates to the recommended value, moving the engine start lever to the IDLE position opens the fuel valves on the wing spar and engine.

Inflight Starting Two methods of starting an engine inflight are available, windmill and crossbleed.

[Option – Side by side display] If crossbleed starting is required, the X–BLD START indication is displayed above the N2 dial. This indication is based on airplane altitude, airspeed.

[Option – Over/Under display] If crossbleed starting is required, the X–BLD indication is displayed above the N2 dial. This indication is based on airplane altitude, airspeed.

Fire Protection Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 189

Fire Protection Chapter 8 System Description Section 20

Introduction There are three detection and extinguishing systems for: • engines • APU • cargo compartments.

Engine Fire Protection Engine fire protection consists of these systems: • engine overheat and fire detection • engine fire extinguishing.

Engine Overheat and Fire Detection Each engine contains two overheat/fire detector loops. Each loop provides both fire and overheat detection.

The indications of an engine overheat are: • both MASTER CAUTION lights illuminate • the OVHT/DET system annunciator light illuminates • the related ENG OVERHEAT light illuminates.

The indications of an engine fire are: • the fire warning bell sounds • both master FIRE WARN lights illuminate • the related engine fire warning switch illuminates • all related engine overheat alert indications illuminate.

Engine Fire Extinguishing The engine fire warning switches are normally locked down. Illumination of an engine fire warning switch or ENG OVERHEAT light unlocks the engine fire warning switch.

When the engine fire warning switch is pulled out, rotating the engine fire warning switch in either direction discharges a single extinguisher bottle into the associated engine. Rotating the engine fire warning switch in the other direction discharges the remaining extinguisher bottle into the same engine.

The L or R BOTTLE DISCHARGE light illuminates a few seconds after the engine fire warning switch is rotated, indicating the bottle has discharged.

APU Fire Protection APU fire protection consists of these systems: • APU fire detection system. • APU fire extinguishing system.

Page 196: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Controls Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 202

Flight Controls Chapter 9 System Description Section 20

Introduction The primary flight control system uses control wheel, column and pedals linked mechanically to hydraulic power control units which command the primary flight control surfaces; ailerons, elevators and rudder. The flight controls are powered by redundant hydraulic sources; system A and system B. Either hydraulic system can operate all primary flight controls. The ailerons and elevators may be operated manually if required. The rudder may be operated by the standby hydraulic system if system A and system B pressure is not available.

The secondary flight controls, high lift devices consisting of trailing edge (TE) flaps and leading edge (LE) flaps and slats (LE devices), are powered by hydraulic system B. In the event hydraulic system B fails, the TE flaps can be operated electrically.

Pilot Controls The pilot controls consist of: • control column • control wheel • rudder pedal • SPEED BRAKE lever • FLAP lever • STAB TRIM cutout switches • stabilizer trim switches • stabilizer trim wheel

• AILERON trim switches • RUDDER trim control • YAW DAMPER switch • ALTERNATE FLAPS master switch • alternate flaps position switch • FLT CONTROL switches • flight SPOILER switches

Flight Control Surfaces Pitch control is provided by: • two elevators • a movable horizontal stabilizer.

Roll control is provided by: • two ailerons • eight flight spoilers.

Yaw control is provided by a single rudder.

TE flaps and LE flaps and slats provide high lift for takeoff, approach and landing.

Flight Controls Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 203

Flight Control Surfaces Location

Roll Control The roll control surfaces consist of hydraulically powered ailerons and flight spoilers, which are controlled by rotating either control wheel.

Ailerons The ailerons provide roll control around the airplane’s longitudinal axis. The A and B FLT CONTROL switches control hydraulic shutoff valves. These valves can be used to isolate ailerons, as well as the elevators and rudder, from related hydraulic system pressure.

With total hydraulic power failure the ailerons can be mechanically positioned by rotating the pilots' control wheels.

The aileron trim electrically repositions the aileron centering unit, which causes the control wheel to rotate. The amount of aileron trim is indicated on a scale on the top of each control column.

Flight Spoilers Four flight spoilers are located on the upper surface of each wing. Each hydraulic system, A and B, is dedicated to a different set of spoiler pairs to provide isolation operation. Hydraulic pressure shutoff valves are controlled by the two flight SPOILER switches.

Pitch Control The pitch control surfaces consist of hydraulically powered elevators and an electrically powered stabilizer. The elevators are controlled by forward or aft movement of the control column. The stabilizer is controlled by autopilot trim or manual trim.

Elevators The elevators provide pitch control around the airplane’s lateral axis. The A and B FLT CONTROL switches control hydraulic shutoff valves for the elevators. With loss of hydraulic system A and B the elevators can be mechanically positioned by forward or aft movement of the pilots’ control columns.

Stabilizer The horizontal stabilizer is positioned through either the stab trim switches on the control wheel or autopilot trim.

Yaw Control Yaw control is accomplished by a hydraulically powered rudder and a yaw damper system. The rudder is controlled by displacing the rudder pedals.

Rudder The rudder provides yaw control about the airplane’s vertical axis. The A and B FLT CONTROL switches control hydraulic shutoff valves for the rudder and the standby rudder.

The RUDDER trim control, located on the aft electronic panel, electrically repositions the rudder feel and centering unit which adjusts the rudder neutral position. The RUDDER TRIM indicator displays the rudder trim position in units.

Yaw Damper When YAW DAMPER switch is positioned to ON, the yaw damper system operate in flight to improve airplane directional stability.

Speed Brakes The speed brakes consist of flight spoilers and ground spoilers. Hydraulic system A powers all four ground spoilers, two on the upper surface of each wing. The SPEED BRAKE lever controls the spoilers. When the SPEED BRAKE lever is actuated all the spoilers extend when the airplane is on the ground and only the flight spoilers extend when the airplane is in the air.

In-Flight Operation Operating the SPEED BRAKE lever in flight causes all flight spoiler panels to rise symmetrically to act as speed brakes. Moving the SPEED BRAKE lever beyond the FLIGHT DETENT is prohibited in flight.

Ground Operation During landing, the auto speed brake system operates when these conditions occur: • SPEED BRAKE lever is in the ARMED position • SPEED BRAKE ARMED light is illuminated • landing gear strut compresses on touchdown • both thrust levers are retarded to IDLE

The SPEED BRAKE lever automatically moves to the UP position and the spoilers

Page 211: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Controls Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 205

deploy.

If the SPEED BRAKE lever is in the DOWN position during landing or rejected takeoff, the auto speed brake system operates when these conditions occur: • both thrust levers are retarded to IDLE • reverse thrust levers are positioned for reverse thrust.

The SPEED BRAKE lever automatically moves to the UP position and spoilers deploy.

Flaps and Slats The flaps and slats are high lift devices that increase wing lift and decrease stall speed during takeoff, low speed maneuvering and landing.

LE devices consist of four flaps and eight slats: two flaps inboard and four slats outboard of each engine. The TE devices consist of double slotted flaps inboard and outboard of each engine.

TE flap positions 1–15 provide increased lift; positions 15–40 provide increased lift and drag. Flaps 15, 30 and 40 are normal landing flap positions. Flaps 15 is normally limited to airports where approach climb performance is a factor.

Flap and Slat Sequencing LE devices and TE flaps are normally extended and retracted by hydraulic power from system B. When the FLAP lever is in the UP detent, all flaps and LE devices are commanded to the retracted or up position. Moving the FLAP lever aft allows selection of flap detent positions 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 25, 30 or 40. The LE devices deployment is sequenced as a function of TE flaps deployment.

When the FLAP lever is moved from the UP position to the 1, 2, or 5 position, the TE flaps extend to the commanded position and the LE: • flaps extend to the full extended position and • slats extend to the extend position.

When the FLAP lever is moved beyond the 5 position the TE flaps extend to the commanded position and the LE: • flaps remain at the full extended position and • slats extend to the full extended position.

The LE devices sequence is reversed upon retraction.

Flap Load Relief The flaps/slat electronics unit (FSEU) provides a TE flap load relief function which protects the flaps from excessive air loads. This function is operative at the flaps 10, 15, 25, 30 and flaps 40 positions. The FLAP lever does not move, but the flap position indicator displays flap retraction and re–extension.

When the flaps are set at 40, the TE flaps: • retract to 30 if airspeed exceeds 171 knots • re–extend when airspeed is reduced below 166 knots.

When the flaps are set at 30, the TE flaps: • retract to 25 if the airspeed exceeds 181 knots

Page 212: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Controls Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 206

• re–extend when airspeed is reduced below 176 knots.

When the flaps are set at 25, the TE flaps: • retract to 15 if the airspeed exceeds 196 knots • re–extend when airspeed is reduced below 191 knots.

When the flaps are set at 15, the TE flaps: • retract to 10 if the airspeed exceeds 201 knots • re–extend when airspeed is reduced below 196 knots.

When the flaps are set at 10, the TE flaps: • retract to 5 if the airspeed exceeds 206 knots • re–extend when airspeed is reduced below 201 knots.

Autoslats The autoslat system is designed to enhance airplane stall characteristics at high angles of attack during takeoff or approach to landing. When TE flaps 1 through 5 are selected, the LE slats are in the extend position. As the airplane approaches the stall angle, the slats automatically begin driving to the full extended position prior to stick shaker activation.

Alternate Extension In the event that hydraulic system B fails, an alternate method of extending the LE devices and extending and retracting the TE flaps is provided.

The TE flaps can be operated electrically through the use of two alternate flap switches. The guarded ALTERNATE FLAPS master switch closes a flap bypass valve and arms the alternate flaps position switch. The ALTERNATE FLAPS position switch controls an electric motor that extends or retracts the TE flaps.

Flight Instruments, Displays Chapter 10 EFIS/Map System Description Section 20

Introduction The Common Display System (CDS) supplies information to the flight crew on six flat panel liquid crystal display units (DUs). The outboard and inboard display units present all primary flight and navigation information. Engine and system data are normally shown on the upper display unit. The lower display unit serves as a spare.

Detailed information on the following subjects is found in other sections of this chapter: • Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) – Section 30 • Navigation display – Section 40.

DISPLAYS SOURCE Panel

The DISPLAYS source panel, located on the forward overhead panel, contains source controls for the display electronic units (DEUs) and EFIS control panels.

Two DEUs receive data from sensors and airplane systems and supply data to the DUs. During normal operation, with the display SOURCE selector in the AUTO position, DEU1 supplies data to the Captain outboard, Captain inboard and upper DUs while

DEU2 supplies data to the First Officer outboard, First Officer inboard and lower DUs. If a DEU fails, the remaining DEU automatically supplies data to all six displays. If the displays are automatically or manually switched to a single DEU source, a “DSPLY SOURCE” annunciation illuminates above both pilot’s altimeters.

The CONTROL PANEL select switch determines which EFIS control panel controls the pilots’ display functions. With the switch positioned to either BOTH ON 1 or BOTH ON 2, the selected EFIS control panel provides inputs for both sets of pilot displays. When in the NORMAL position, a “DISPLAYS CONTROL PANEL” annunciation illuminates on the pilot’s altimeters and indicates a failure of the associated EFIS control panel.

EFIS Control Panels The EFIS control panels, located on the glareshield, control display options, mode, and range for the related pilot’s displays. Refer to the EFIS and navigation display sections of this chapter for detailed information.

Display Select Panel The display select panel, located on the left and right forward panels, controls the displays on the inboard, outboard and lower DUs. Normal operation is all selectors in the NORMAL position. The pilots’ outboard and inboard DUs display primary flight and navigation data and the upper DU displays engine data.

If a DU fails, automatic display switching ensures critical information remains available to the pilots at all times. If the system detects an operational failure on an outboard DU, the compact EFIS format automatically moves to the inboard DU and the failed outboard DU blanks. If the system detects a failure on an inboard DU, the compact EFIS format automatically moves to the outboard DU and the failed inboard DU blanks. If the upper DU fails, the engine display automatically moves to the lower DU.

The iFly Developer Team Page 329

Flight Instruments, Displays Chapter 10 Head-Up Display System Description Section 22 [Option – BBJ/BBJ2]

Introduction The Head-Up Display (HUD) system uses electronics and optics to calculate and display flight information.

The HUD system can be used during manual flight operations, or with the AFDS engaged during automatic flight operations.

Modes of Operation The HUD system provides a mode–selectable display on the HUD. The modes are: • PRI (Primary) – used for most HUD operations • AIII – primarily used for manually flown CAT II or IIIa ILS approach and landing

operations • IMC – used for AFDS autopilot/flight director approaches • VMC – used for visual approaches.

Primary (PRI) Mode The primary mode may be used during all phases of flight from takeoff to landing.

Attitude information is displayed in the form of a horizon line and pitch scales positioned relative to an airplane reference symbol. Airspeed and altitude are displayed in tapes along the left and right edges of the display. A sectored HSI is displayed in flight in the lower center of the display. On the ground, the HSI, flight path and guidance cue are not displayed. These symbols are automatically displayed once the aircraft is in flight.

AIII Approach Mode The HUD AIII mode is specifically designed for manual ILS approach and landing operations to CAT II or CAT IIIa minimums. Altitude and airspeed tape displays are replaced with digital values. The HSI is also replaced with ILS raw data.

IMC Mode The IMC mode is an alternate approach mode primarily intended for autopilot approaches. Like the PRI mode, the IMC mode guidance cue utilizes AFDS derived guidance.

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Navigation Systems Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 383

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 Navigation Systems Description Section 20

Introduction Navigation systems include the flight management system (FMS); global positioning system (GPS); air data inertial reference system (ADIRS); radio navigation systems (ADF, ILS, marker beacons, and VOR); and transponder.

Flight Management System The flight management system (FMS) is comprised of the following components: • flight management computer system (FMCS) • autopilot/flight director system (AFDS) • autothrottle (A/T) • inertial reference systems (IRS) • global positioning system (GPS).

The primary flight deck controls are the AFDS MCP, two control display units (CDU’s), two electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) control panels, and an FMC source selector switch. The primary displays are the CDUs, outboard display units, inboard display units, and upper display unit.

Global Positioning System (GPS) Two GPS receivers receive GPS satellite positioning signals. The left and right GPS receivers are independent and each provides an accurate airplane geographical position to the FMC and other aircraft systems. GPS operation is automatic.

GPS Displays POS REF page 2/3 shows the left and right GPS latitude and longitude position. POS SHIFT page 3/3 shows the left and right GPS position relative to the FMC position. NAV STATUS page 1/2 shows the GPS currently in use by the FMC for position calculation.

GPS Data FMC logic selects the position from one of the GPS sensor units as the primary update to the FMC position. The operation of the GPS is completely automatic.

Inertial System The inertial system computes airplane position, ground speed and attitude data for the DUs, flight management system, autoflight system and other systems. The major components of the inertial system are the air data inertial reference units (ADIRU), an inertial system display unit (ISDU), IRS mode select unit (MSU) and an IRS transfer switch.

Inertial Reference System Two independent IRSs are installed. The IRSs are the airplane’s sole source of attitude

Page 390: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Navigation Systems Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 384

and heading information, except for the standby attitude indicator and standby magnetic compass.

IRS Alignment An IRS must be aligned and initialized with airplane present position before it can enter the navigation mode. The present position is normally entered through the FMC CDU. If the present position cannot be entered through the FMC CDU, it may be entered through the ISDU keyboard. The airplane must remain stationary during alignment.

Normal alignment between 78 degrees 15 minutes North or South is initiated by rotating the MSU switch from OFF to NAV. The IRS performs a short power test, during which the ON DC light illuminates. When the ON DC light extinguishes and the ALIGN light illuminates, the alignment process begins. Airplane present position should be entered at this time. The alignment time will change between a minimum of 5 minutes at the equator to 17 minutes maximum at 78.25 degrees, north or south latitudes. The alignment time will not be more than 10 minutes if the present position latitude is between 60.0 degrees north or south. The alignment time is fixed at 10 minutes between latitudes of 60.0 and 70.2 degrees north or south. The alignment time is fixed at 17 minutes between latitudes of 70.2 and 78.25 degrees north or south. The ADIRU will not align at latitude more than 78.25 north or south.

If the latitude/longitude position is not within 4 NM of the origin airport, the CDU scratchpad message VERIFY POSITION is displayed. If the entered latitude/longitude position does not pass the IRS internal comparison tests, the scratchpad message ENTER IRS POSITION is displayed.

The flashing ALIGN light alerts the crew that the position entered does not pass the internal comparison tests and should be checked for accuracy. If the test is passed, the IRS will proceed to complete the alignment process and enter NAV mode.

During transit or through–flight stops with brief ground times, a thirty second fast realignment and zeroing of ground speed error may be performed by selecting ALIGN while the airplane is parked. Present position should be simultaneously updated by manually entering latitude and longitude prior to selecting NAV.

Loss of Alignment If an IRS loses both AC and DC power, the alignment is lost. Alignment can be lost if the MSU switch is moved out of the NAV position.

If alignment is lost in–flight, the navigation mode is inoperative for the remainder of the flight. However, selecting ATT allows the attitude mode to be used to relevel the system and provide an attitude reference. Some attitude errors may occur during acceleration, but will be slowly removed after acceleration stops. The attitude mode can also provide heading information, but crew must manually enter the initial magnetic heading.

Inertial System Display Unit (ISDU) The ISDU is located on the aft overhead panel and displays data according to the position of the display selector and system selector. The ISDU also contains a keyboard for entry of present position and heading.

Page 391: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Navigation Systems Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 385

Mode Select Unit (MSU) The MSU is located on the aft overhead panel and is used to select the operating mode for each IRS. Indicator lights on the MSU show status of each IRS.

IRS Transfer Switch Should either IRS fail, the IRS transfer switch is used to switch all associated systems to the functioning IRS.

Radio Navigation Systems Automatic Direction Finding (ADF) Two automatic direction finding (ADF) receivers are installed. The ADF bearing signals are sent to the pointers on the DUs and the standby radio magnetic indicator.

Marker Beacon [Option – EFIS/MAP] Marker beacon indications for outer, middle, and inner marker are displayed on the upper outboard corner of the Captain’s and First Officer’s outboard display units.

[Option – PFD/ND] Marker beacon indications for outer, middle and inner marker are displayed on the upper right hand corner of the attitude display located on the Captain’s and First Officer’s Primary Flight Display (PFD) units.

Very High Frequency Omni Range (VOR) Two VOR receivers are installed. Left and right VOR bearings are displayed on the DUs when a valid in–range VOR station is tuned and the respective EFIS control panel VOR/ADF switch is in the VOR position. The DUs also show course deviation.

VHF NAV Transfer Switch Should either VOR receiver fail, the VHF NAV transfer switch enables selection of the opposite VHF NAV receiver for display.

ATC Transponder Two ATC transponders are installed and controlled by a single control panel. The ATC transponder system transmits a coded radio signal when interrogated by ATC ground radar. The TCAS system is described in Chapter 15.

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 386

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 Flight Management System Description Section 30

Introduction The flight management system (FMS) aids the flight crew in managing automatic navigation, in–flight performance optimization, fuel monitoring, and flight deck displays. Automatic flight functions manage the airplane lateral flight path (LNAV) and vertical flight path (VNAV).

The flight crew enters the desired route and flight data into the CDUs. The FMS then uses its navigation database, airplane position and supporting system data to calculate commands for manual or automatic flight path control.

The FMS can automatically tune the navigation radios and determine LNAV courses. The FMS navigation database provides the necessary data to fly routes, SIDs, and STARs.

For vertical navigation, computations include items such as fuel data, optimum speeds, and recommended altitudes. Cruise altitudes and crossing altitude restrictions are used to compute VNAV commands.

Flight Management Computer (FMC) The basis of the flight management system is the flight management computer (FMC). The FMC uses flight crew–entered flight plan information, airplane systems data, and data from the FMC navigation database to calculate airplane present position, and pitch, roll, and thrust commands required to fly an optimum flight profile. The FMC sends these commands to the autothrottle, autopilot, and flight director. Map and route information are sent to DUs.

Control Display Units (CDUs) Two identical, independent CDUs provide the means for the flight crew to communicate with the FMC. The crew may enter data into the FMC using either CDU, although simultaneous entries should be avoided.

The iFly Developer Team Page 387

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 Flight Management System Operation Section 31

Introduction When first powered, the FMS is in the preflight phase. As a phase is completed, the FMS automatically transitions to the next phase in this order: • preflight • takeoff • climb • cruise

• descent • approach • flight complete.

Preflight During preflight, flight plan and load sheet information are entered into the CDU. The flight plan defines the route of flight from the origin to the destination and initializes LNAV.

Preflight begins with the IDENT page. If the IDENT page is not displayed, it can be selected from the IDENT prompt on the INIT/REF INDEX page. Visual prompts provide assistance in selecting the appropriate CDU pages. Preflight pages can be manually selected in any order.

After entering and checking the necessary data on each preflight page, the lower right line select key is pushed to select the next page. When ACTIVATE is selected on the RTE page, the execute light illuminates. The EXEC key is then pushed to complete the task of making the route active before continuing with the preflight.

When all required preflight entries are complete, the preflight status prompts on the TAKEOFF REF page are no longer displayed.

Takeoff The takeoff phase begins with selection of TO/GA and extends to the thrust reduction altitude where climb thrust is normally selected.

Climb The climb phase begins at the thrust reduction altitude and extends to the top of climb (T/C) point. The T/C point is where the airplane reaches the cruise altitude entered on the PERF INIT page.

Cruise The cruise phase begins at the T/C point and extends to the top of descent (T/D) point. Cruise can include step climbs and en route descents.

Descent The descent phase begins at the T/D point. The descent phase extends to the beginning of the approach phase.

Approach The approach phase begins two miles from the first waypoint of a approach or

Page 394: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management System Operation

The iFly Developer Team Page 388

approach transition selected from the ARRIVALS page.

Flight Complete After landing, the flight complete phase clears the active flight plan and load data. Some preflight data fields initialize to default values in preparation for the next flight.

FMC and CDU Terminology The following information describes the unique terminology which is used to describe the flight crew interaction with the FMC and CDU.

Active – flight plan information that is currently being used to calculate LNAV or VNAV guidance commands. The active waypoint is the point the system is currently navigating toward, and the active performance VNAV mode is the climb, cruise, or descent profile currently being used for pitch and thrust commands. ATC is displayed on the respective page title.

Activate – the process of designating the routes as active. It is a two step process: • push the ACTIVATE prompt • push the illuminated execute (EXEC) key.

Altitude restriction – refers to a crossing restriction at a waypoint on the route.

Econ – a speed schedule that is calculated to minimize operating cost of the aircraft. The economy speed is based on a cost index that is entered into FMC during preflight on the PERF INIT page. The cost index is determined by dividing the operating cost of the aircraft by the cost of fuel. If fuel costs are high the number is low A low cost index results in a low cruise speed.

Enter – this is the process of typing or line selecting alphanumeric characters into the CDU scratchpad line and then line selecting the information to the desired location.

Erase – removing of modified LNAV and VNAV path from the system by pushing the LSK adjacent to the word ERASE.

Execute – refers to making entered information part of the active flight plan by pushing the illuminated EXEC key.

Inactive – refers to route, climb, cruise, or descent information that is not currently being used to calculate LNAV or VNAV commands.

Initialize – is the process of entering information into the CDU that is required to make the FMS operative.

Message – refers to information the FMC automatically writes in the scratchpad to inform the flight crew of some condition.

Modify – the changing of active data. When a modification is made to the active route or performance mode, MODE is display in the page title, ERASE appears next to one of the LSK, and the EXEC key illuminates. Pushing the REASE LSK removes the modification. Pushing the EXEC key changes the modified information to active.

Prompt – is something displayed on the CDU page to aid the flight crew in accomplishing a task. It may be boxes, dashes, or a careted (< or >) line to remind the flight crew to enter or validate information on the respective data line.

Select – refers to pushing a key to obtain the desired information or action,

Speed Restriction – refers to an airspeed limit beyond a specified altitude constraint entered by the pilot.

Speed Transition – this is an airspeed limit below a specified altitude which is automatically entered.

Delete – remove FMC data and revert to default values, dash or box prompts, or a blank entry using the DELETE key.

Waypoint – refers to a point in the route. It may be a fixed point such as a latitude and longitude, VOR or NDB station, intersection on an airway, or a conditional point. An example of a conditional point is “when reaching 1,000 feet”

Maintenance Index Page The MAINT BITE INDEX page is available only on the ground.

1.INDEX Push – displays the INIT/REF INDEX page.

Navigation Position The FMC determines present position from the IRS, GPS, and navigation radios. The FMC uses its calculated present position to generate lateral steering commands along the active leg to the active waypoint.

FMC Position Update On the ground, the FMC calculates present position based on GPS data. If GPS data is not available, the FMC calculates present position based on IRS data.

In flight, the FMC position is continually updated from the GPS, navigation radios, and IRS. Updating priority is based on the availability of valid data from the supporting systems.

FMC logic selects the GPS position as the primary update to the FMC position. If all GPS data becomes unavailable, the FMC reverts to radio or IRS updating.

Lateral Navigation (LNAV) LNAV provides steering commands to the next waypoint. If selected, LNAV engages when laterally within 3 nautical miles of the active route leg. If outside of 3 nautical miles of the active route leg, LNAV engages if on an intercept heading of 90 degrees or less and the intercept will occur before the active waypoint.

Waypoints Waypoint (navigation fix) identifiers are displayed on the CDU and navigation display.

The CDU message NOT IN DATA BASE is displayed if a manually entered waypoint identifier is not stored in the database. The waypoint can still be entered as a latitude/longitude, place–bearing/distance or place–bearing/place–bearing waypoint.

FMC– generated waypoints contain a maximum of five characters assigned according to the following rules.

Navaid Waypoint Names VHF and NDB – waypoints located at navaids are identified by the station identifier.

Fix Waypoint Names Fixes waypoints are identified by the name.

Procedure Arc Fix Waypoint Names Unnamed terminal area fixes along a DME arc procedure – unnamed fixes along a DME arc procedure are identified with the first character D. Characters 2 through 4 indicate the radial on which the fix lies. The last character indicates the arc radius. The radius is expressed by a letter of the alphabet where A = 1 mile, B = 2 miles, C = 3 miles, and so forth. Examples: • GEG006°/20 = D006T. • EPH145°/24 = D145X

An unnamed waypoint along a DME arc with a radius greater than 26 miles is identified as DME station identifier, followed by the radius. Examples: • CPR338°/29 = CPR29 • GEG079°/30 = GEG30.

When there are multiple unnamed waypoints along a DME arc with a radius greater than 26 miles, the station identifier is reduced to two characters, followed by the radius, and then a sequence character. Examples: • CPR134°/29 = CP29A • CPR190° /29 = CP29B • CPR201°/29 = CP29C.

Conditional Waypoint Names

Conditional waypoints are automatically entered into a route as a result of selecting a procedure on a DEPARTURES or ARRIVALS page. Conditional waypoints cannot be manually entered on a route or legs page. These waypoints are events when a condition occurs and are not at a geographically–fixed position. The types of

Page 397: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management System Operation

The iFly Developer Team Page 391

conditions are: • passing through an altitude • flying a heading to a radial or DME

distance

• intercepting a course • heading vector to a course or fix.

Conditional waypoints are displayed on the CDU inside (parentheses) marks. A waypoint of “passing through an altitude” is displayed as “(XXX)”, in which XXX is the altitude. For example, “(700)” means to pass the altitude of 700ft. A waypoint of “intercepting a course” is displayed as “(INTC)”; and of “flying a heading to a radial”, as “(ABC123)” where ABC is the navigation station identifier and 123 is the radial. A waypoint of “flying a heading to a DME distance” is displayed as “(ABC-12)” where ABC is the navigation station identifier and the next 2 digits are the DME distance. If exceeds 100NM, the last two digits will be displayed before the navigation station identifier, such as “(23-ABC)”. A waypoint of “heading vector to a course or fix” is displayed as “(VECTOR)”.

Manually Entered Latitude/ Longitude Waypoint Names Pilot defined waypoints entered as a latitude and longitude are displayed in a five–character format. The first three characters are WPT followed by a two digit sequence number. Latitude and longitude waypoints are entered with no space or slash between the latitude and longitude entries. Leading zeroes must be entered. All digits and decimal points (to 1/10 minute) must be entered unless the latitude or longitude are full degrees. Examples: • N47° W008° is entered as N47W008 and displayed as WPT01 • N47° 15.4’ W008° 3.4’ is entered as N4715.4W00803.4 and displayed as WPT02.

Manually Entered Place–Bearing/Distance or Place–Bearing/Place–Bearing Waypoint Names Waypoints entered as a place–bearing/distance or place–bearing/place–bearing are identified by the first three characters of the entry followed by a two–digit sequence number. Examples: • SEA330/10 becomes SEA01 • SEA330/OLM020 becomes SEA02.

Vertical Navigation (VNAV) VNAV provides vertical profile guidance through the climb, cruise, and descent phases of flight.

Speed/Altitude Restrictions VNAV controls the path and speed to comply with waypoint crossing restrictions. Waypoint crossing restrictions are entered on the LEGS page waypoint line by pushing the applicable key on the right side of the CDU. Values entered as part of a procedure and manually entered restrictions are shown in large font. FMC predicted values do not act as restrictions, and are shown in small font.

A waypoint restriction is magenta when it is active. The restriction does not have to be in line 1 to be active.

Modified waypoint restrictions are shaded white until they are executed.

Page 398: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management System Operation

The iFly Developer Team Page 392

At or above altitude restrictions are entered with a suffix letter A (example: 220A). At or below altitude restrictions are entered with a suffix letter B (example: 240B). Mandatory altitude restrictions are entered without any suffix letter (example: 270).

Altitude restrictions that are between two altitudes are displayed with the lower limit first, followed by a suffix letter A, then the upper limit, followed by a suffix letter B (example: 220A240B).

Takeoff and Climb

1.Thrust Reduction Climb thrust is selected by pushing the N1 switch or automatically upon reaching the thrust reduction altitude.

2.VNAV Engagement VNAV commands an airspeed increase to the planned climb speed profile, limited by configuration.

3.VNAV Climb The VNAV climb profile uses VNAV SPD at the default climb speed or pilot selected climb speed to remain within all airspeed and altitude restrictions that are part of the SID entered into the active route. Autothrottle uses selected climb thrust limit.

4.Climb Restrictions VNAV enters the VNAV PTH mode to remain within departure or waypoint restrictions.

5.Top Of Climb (T/C) The point where the climb phase meets the cruise altitude is called the top of climb. Approaching this point, the FMC changes from the climb phase to the cruise phase.

The T/C point is shown on the map as a green circle with the label T/C.

MCP Altitude Intervention The altitude intervention switch may be used to resume climb after a temporary level off.

Whenever the airplane levels off at an MCP altitude that is not in the FMC, VNAV ALT engages. In the illustration above, FMC cruise altitude is FL250 and the clearance altitude, FL190, is set in the MCP. Pitch maintains altitude and thrust maintains FMC target speed. In the illustration above, the speed after the temporary level off would be ECON CLB SPEED.

To resume the climb, put the clearance altitude into the MCP altitude window and push the altitude intervention switch. VNAV SPD engages. Pitch maintains FMC speed and thrust increases to the climb limit. In the example, the airplane climbs to FMC CRZ ALT and then levels off in cruise.

The altitude intervention switch may be used during climb or descent to delete altitude restrictions between the current altitude and the MCP altitude. When level at a restriction altitude, and cleared to a higher altitude prior to crossing the restriction waypoint, reset the MCP altitude to the new clearance altitude and push the altitude intervention switch.

In the illustration above, the current altitude restriction is deleted and the airplane continues VNAV climb to the cruise altitude. T/C moves to match the new climb profile.

The altitude intervention switch may be used to increase cruise altitude. When level at a cruise altitude, and then cleared to a higher cruise altitude, reset the MCP altitude to the new cruise altitude and push the altitude intervention switch.

In the illustration above, the cruise altitude is increased and the airplane enters a VNAV cruise climb at the economy cruise speed.

Cruise At cruise altitude, the FMC sets cruise speed at the default or pilot entered speed until reaching the top–of–descent (T/D) point.

Cruise thrust is set as required to maintain level flight at the target speed, with the autothrottle engaged. The FMC uses maximum range cruise speed if cost index is set to zero.

Fuel and ETA predictions are based on a constant altitude cruise unless a step climb altitude is entered.

Step Climb If a step climb altitude is entered in the CRZ page STEP altitude, the FMC calculates the point where the step climb should begin.

The distance and ETA to the next step point are shown on the CRZ and PROGRESS pages. The next step point is shown on the map as a green open circle with the label S/C.

Descent VNAV can perform a descent in either of two modes – path descent or speed descent. During a path descent, the FMC uses idle thrust and pitch control to maintain a vertical path, similar to a glideslope in three dimensions. During a speed descent, the FMC uses idle thrust and pitch control to maintain a target descent speed, similar to a level change descent.

Top of Descent (T/D) The point where the cruise phase changes to the descent phase is the top of descent. The T/D point is shown on the map as a green circle with the label T/D. T/D is calculated from an end of descent (E/D) point.

End of Descent (E/D) The FMC calculates a descent path based on airspeed restrictions, altitude restrictions and the end of descent (E/D) point. The E/D point is shown on the map as a green open circle with the label E/D. VNAV path descent is not available if there is no E/D point.

VNAV Descent and Approach Path The descent path starts at the calculated top of descent (T/D) point and includes waypoint altitude restrictions. The path is based on: • idle thrust • speedbrakes retracted • descent wind speed decreasing with decreasing altitude • applicable target speed.

Target speeds are changed by entries on the DESCENT page. Wind and thrust assumptions are changed on the DES FORECASTS page.

During descent, VNAV ALT engages if the airplane levels at an MCP altitude not in the FMC.

VNAV Path Descent The FMC defaults to the path descent mode for planning purposes. The path descent normally begins automatically at the calculated T/D point. At the T/D, the FMC commands idle thrust and pitch to follow the descent path.

Note: A path descent uses the target speed for planning purposes only. There is no attempt to maintain the target speed during the idle portion of the descent.

The CDU message DRAG REQUIRED is displayed if an unexpected tailwind results in a significant increase in airspeed to maintain path. VNAV reverts to VNAV SPD if a limit speed will be exceeded.

2.Descent After top of descent, FMC is in descent mode and VNAV changes to economy descent speed and descends in VNAV PTH.

3.Speed Restriction Deceleration Before the speed restriction altitude, VNAV decelerates to commanded speed using VNAV PTH.

4.Altitude Restrictions The VNAV path conforms to altitude restrictions at MNO, EPG, and the FAF.

[Option – With geometric descent path] The VNAV path conforms to altitude restrictions at MNO, EPG, and the FAF. The thrust mode changes to FMC SPD as required to maintain the target speed.

5.Approach VNAV descends and starts approach in VNAV PTH at the commanded speed.

6.Missed Approach When TOGA is pushed during approach, VNAV disengages.

When selected during missed approach, VNAV engages in VNAV SPD.

7.Missed Approach Level Off At missed approach altitude VNAV changes to VNAV PTH.

VNAV Speed Descent A speed descent may be selected manually by selecting the SPEED prompt on the PATH DES page. With no E/D specified, the speed descent is the only descent mode available.

The speed descent maintains the target speed. Normally, the target speed is economy above the airspeed restriction altitude and 240 knots below that altitude. VNAV will not permit descent below the altitude restriction until the airspeed is at or below the restricted value.

The speed descent normally begins automatically at the calculated T/D. At the T/D, the FMC commands pitch to maintain target descent speed.

A speed descent cannot automatically revert to a path descent. However, if all required parameters for a path descent are available, a path descent may be manually selected at any time by selecting the PATH prompt on the speed descent page.

2.Descent After top of descent, FMC is in descent mode and VNAV changes to economy descent speed and descends in VNAV SPD.

3.Speed Restriction Deceleration Before the speed restriction altitude, VNAV decelerates to commanded speed using VNAV SPD.

When at restricted speed, VNAV commands decreased pitch and descends in VNAV SPD.

4.VNAV Path During a speed descent, VNAV may not maintain the FMC computed VNAV path. However, if E/D shows, a VNAV path is available.

5.Altitude Restrictions VNAV conforms to altitude restrictions at MNO and EPG. After MNO VNAV continues an idle thrust descent using VNAV SPD.

Upon reaching the next altitude restriction, VNAV commands level flight using VNAV PTH. The thrust mode changes to FMC SPD.

6.Descent and Approach After EPG, VNAV continues the idle thrust descent using VNAV SPD.

Early Descent A descent in VNAV started before the top of descent point is an early descent. VNAV commands a 1000 fpm descent until the idle descent path is intercepted.

To start an early descent, use DES NOW prompt on the DES page.

captures the idle descent path.

2.Within 50 NM of Top of Descent Point Use the MCP altitude selector to start an early descent. Within 50 NM of the top of descent point, VNAV starts an early descent and captures the idle descent path.

3.More than 50 NM from Top of Descent Point Use the MCP altitude selector to start a cruise descent. If the distance from the top of descent is more than 50 NM, VNAV begins a cruise descent to the new cruise altitude. Approach The FMC transitions to “on approach” when the airplane is within: • 2 NM of the first approach waypoint (including approach transitions such as arcs

and procedure turns), or • 2000 feet of airport elevation, whichever occurs first. Go-Around Below 2000 feet radio altitude, the FMC transitions to go-around logic from approach logic when pushing either TO/GA switch.

Once the FMC go-around logic is established: • the FMC transitions from active descent to active climb • the thrust limit changes to go-around thrust VNAV Cruise (Engine Out Above Eng Out Max Alt)

1.Engine Out Modification Select the ENG OUT prompt on the CRZ page. The ENG OUT page displays the appropriate engine out driftdown performance data to enable the airplane to descend to the engine out maximum altitude.

After selecting the left or right ENG OUT mode, perform the driftdown as follows: • disconnect A/T • set maximum continuous thrust on operating engine (N1 line) • set MCP speed to ENG OUT SPD • set MCP altitude to MAX ALT or lower altitude as required • select LVL CHG.

The airplane then descends at CON thrust and the driftdown airspeed to the MAX ALT. As the driftdown proceeds and airplane gross weight decreases, the maximum altitude may increase.

3.Engine Out Cruise Engine out cruise operates like normal cruise with engine out cruise speeds.

Data Entry Rules Altitude Entry Altitudes can be entered into the FMC as three digit (xxx), four digit (xxxx), five digit (xxxxx), or flight level (FLxxx) numbers. The FMC automatically displays altitude or flight level entries in the proper form based on the transition altitude.

Three digit entries represent altitude or flight levels in increments of 100 feet. Leading zeros are required.

Examples of three digit (xxx, FLxxx) entries with transition altitude = 10,000 feet: • 800 feet is entered as 008 or FL008 and displayed as 800 • 1,500 feet is entered as 015 or FL015 and displayed as 1500 • 11,500 feet is entered as 115 or FL115 and displayed as FL115

Four digit entries represent feet, rounded to the nearest ten feet. Leading zeros are required.

Examples of four digit (xxxx) entries with transition altitude = 18,000 feet: • 50 feet is entered as 0050 and displayed as 50 • 835 feet is entered as 0835 and displayed as 840 • 1,500 feet is entered as 1500 and displayed as 1500 • 8,500 feet is entered as 8500 and displayed as 8500 • 9,994 feet is entered as 9994 and displayed as 9990.

Five digit entries represent feet, rounded to the nearest ten feet.

Examples of five (xxxxx) digit entries with transition altitude = 4,000 feet: • 50 feet is entered as 00050 and displayed as 50 • 835 feet is entered as 00835 and displayed as 840 • 1,500 feet is entered as 01500 and displayed as 1500 • 8,500 feet is entered as 08500 and displayed as FL085 • 9,995 feet is entered as 09995 and displayed as FL100 • 11,500 feet is entered as 11500 and displayed as FL115

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management System Operation

The iFly Developer Team Page 402

Airspeed Entry Airspeeds can be entered into the FMC as calibrated airspeed or Mach number. Calibrated airspeeds are entered as three digits (xxx) in knots. Mach numbers are entered as one, two, or three digits following a decimal point.

Data Pairs Many CDU pages display data in pairs separated by a slash “/.” Examples of these pairs include wind direction/speed and waypoint airspeed/altitude restrictions. When entering both values in a pair, the slash is inserted between the values. When it is possible to enter only one value of the pair, the slash may not be required. When entering only the outboard value of a pair, the trailing or leading slash may be entered, but is not required before transferring to the data line. When entering the inboard value of a pair, the trailing or leading slash must be entered before transferring to the data line.

Bearing Entry Entry of a bearing value requires three digits. For example, key 090, not 90. A bearing entry of 360 is displayed as 000.

Plus/Minus Signs When entering temperature, positive values are assumed by the FMC and + signs are not required. For negative values, key in the – sign.

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 Flight Management Computer Section 32

FMC Databases The FMC contains two databases: • performance database • navigation database.

The performance database provides the FMC with the information required to calculate pitch and thrust commands. The database includes: • airplane drag and engine characteristics • maximum and optimum altitudes • maximum and minimum speeds.

The navigation database includes most information normally determined by referring to navigation charts. The database contains: • the location of VHF navigation aids • waypoints • airports • runways • other airline selected information, such as SIDs, STARs, approaches, and company

routes.

Thrust Management The autothrottle operates in response to flight crew mode control panel inputs or to automatic FMC commands. Reference thrust can be selected on the N1 LIMIT page. Automatic FMC autothrottle commands are made while VNAV is engaged.

The FMC calculates a reference thrust for the following modes: • takeoff • derated takeoff • assumed temperature takeoff • climb • reduced climb

• cruise • continuous • go–around • noise abatement (cutback).

The thrust reference mode automatically transitions for the respective phase of flight. These modes can be selected on the N1 LIMIT page. The selected thrust reference mode is displayed on the thrust mode display.

The flight crew can specify the thrust reduction height where the transition from takeoff to climb thrust takes place by making an entry on TAKEOFF REF page 2. Allowable entries are 800 feet to 9,999 feet.

With cutback mode selected ON, the flight crew can specify the thrust reduction and restore altitudes on TAKEOFF REF page 2.

Reduced Thrust Takeoff Reduced thrust takeoffs lower EGT and extend engine life. They are used whenever performance limits and noise abatement procedures permit.

Page 410: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual Flight Management Computer

The iFly Developer Team Page 404

Takeoff Derate Fixed derates can be selected on the N1 LIMIT page. With derated takeoff selected, the thrust setting parameter is considered a limitation for takeoff. Derated takeoff rating can be further reduced by assumed temperature.

Assumed Temperature Thrust Reduction Takeoff A takeoff thrust less than the full rated thrust may be achieved by using an assumed temperature that is higher than the actual temperature.

Derated Thrust Climb Two fixed climb thrust derates can be selected on the N1 LIMIT page. CLB–1 provides a climb limit reduced by 10% thrust. CLB–2 provides a climb limit reduced by 20% thrust. The reduced climb setting gradually increases to full rated climb thrust by 15,000 feet. In cruise, the thrust reference automatically changes to CRZ. The reference can be manually selected on the N1 LIMIT page.

Fuel Monitoring The FMC receives fuel data from the fuel quantity indicating system. Fuel quantity values show on the PERF INIT page and on PROGRESS page 1/4.

The scratchpad message VERIFY GW AND FUEL shows if total fuel quantity data is invalid. The PERF INIT page FUEL line changes to dashes. The flight crew should manually enter estimated fuel weight. Periodic fuel weight update is required for the remainder of the flight to keep gross weight current. The FMC does not update the manual fuel weight entry. The scratchpad message VERIFY GW AND FUEL shows again each 30 minutes if subsequent entries are not performed. The scratchpad message does not show during descent with Vref selected.

The scratchpad message CHECK FMC FUEL QUANTITY shows if the FMC has detected an unexpected drop in fuel quantity.

The FMC continually estimates the amount of fuel that will remain when the destination airport is reached if the active route is flown.

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 FMC Preflight Section 40

Introduction Completion of the FMC preflight requires data entry in all minimum required data locations. Completing all required and optional preflight data entries ensures the most accurate performance possible.

Preflight Page Sequence The normal preflight sequence follows paging prompts on each CDU page.

The normal FMC power–up page is the identification page. Preflight flow continues in this sequence: • identification page • position initialization page • route page • DEPARTURES page

• performance initialization page • N1 LIMIT page • takeoff reference page.

During preflight, a prompt in the lower right of the CDU page automatically directs the crew through the minimum requirements for preflight completion. Pushing the prompt key for the next page in the flow presents new entry requirements. If a required entry is missed, a prompt on the TAKEOFF page leads the crew to the preflight page that is missing data.

Preflight Pages The preflight pages are presented in the sequence used during a typical preflight.

Initialization/Reference Index Page The initialization/reference index page provides manual selection of FMC pages. It provides access to pages used during preflight and not normally used in flight.

The iFly Developer Team Page 426

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 FMC Takeoff and Climb Section 41

Introduction The FMC takeoff phase begins with the selection of takeoff/go–around (TO/GA). Preparation for this phase begins in the preflight phase and includes entry of the TAKEOFF REF page data.

The takeoff phase automatically changes to the climb phase when climb thrust is selected. The climb phase continues to the top of climb point, where the cruise phase begins.

During these phases, the following pages are normally used: • TAKEOFF REF page – to make last minute changes to the departure runway • DEPARTURES page – to make last minute changes to the SID • CLIMB page – to modify climb parameters and monitor airplane climb

performance • RTE LEGS page – to modify the route and monitor route progress • PROGRESS page – to monitor the overall progress of the flight • N1 LIMIT page – to select alternate climb thrust limits • DEP/ARR INDEX page – to select an approach during a turn–back.

Takeoff Phase With correct takeoff parameters, the FMC commands the selected takeoff thrust when the TO/GA switch is pushed. During the takeoff roll, the autothrottle commands the thrust and the FMC commands acceleration to between V2+15 and V2+25 knots.

LNAV can be selected prior to takeoff. Prior to 50 feet radio altitude, roll command is wings level. At 50 feet radio altitude, if within engagement criteria, LNAV engages and provides roll commands to fly the route leg. VNAV may be engaged to control the climb profile.

Note: For LNAV to be engaged on the ground, the departure runway must be selected and the course, to the first waypoint, must be within 5 degrees of the runway heading.

Climb Phase With VNAV armed during takeoff, VNAV engages at 400 feet and commands acceleration to: • last MCP speed (V2) + 20 kts until acceleration height • if an engine failure is detected, target speed will be last MCP speed (V2) + 20 kts if

the airplane is at that speed or greater, or the existing speed if the airplane is between V2 and V2 + 20 kts

• the flap placard speed minus 5 kts • the active target speed • waypoint speed constraints, or • the speed restriction, whichever is more restrictive.

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual FMC Takeoff and Climb

The iFly Developer Team Page 427

At the climb thrust reduction point, the FMC commands a reduction to the selected climb thrust. When cutback mode is selected ON, the FMC calculates and commands a cutback thrust rating at the required cutback altitude. A new N1 is calculated during climb and normal climb thrust is restored at the RESTORE altitude. Passing 10,000 feet, VNAV commands acceleration to the economy climb speed, which is maintained until entering the cruise phase. Waypoint speed constraints take priority if slower than target speed.

If a CLB 1 or CLB 2 derate is selected, the derate is maintained for the initial part of the climb. Thrust eventually increases to maximum climb thrust by 15,000 feet.

Climb Page The climb page is used to evaluate, monitor, and modify the climb path. The data on the climb page comes from preflight entries made on the route and performance pages.

The climb page is automatically selected by pushing the CLB function key on the ground and during takeoff and climb. The TAKEOFF REF page automatically transitions to the climb page after takeoff.

The CLB pages let the flight crew review and select one of these climb performance modes: • Economy climb (ECON CLB) • Maximum angle climb (MAX ANGLE CLB) • Manual speed climb (XXX KT CLB) • Maximum rate of climb (MAX RATE CLB) • Step climb during cruise (CRZ CLB) • Required time of arrival (RTA CLB).

Also, there is an ENG OUT page which shows advisory information only (VNAV cannot be engaged in this mode). The default climb mode is the economy (ECON) mode but the other modes may be selected from this page.

Displays ACT when the climb phase is active.

2.Cruise Altitude (CRZ ALT) The cruise altitude entry on the PERF INIT page is propagated to this line. Valid entries to the cruise altitude field are standard altitude entries. The cruise altitude can be changed by two methods: • a new altitude can be manually entered from the CDU at any time. Changing the

altitude in this manner creates a modification. • Selecting the new altitude on the MCP and pushing the altitude intervention button

places the new altitude in the CRZ ALT data line. Entering a new cruise altitude in this manner does not create a modification.

3.Target Speed (TGT SPD) Displays computed values or manually entered values for the selected mode. Displays XXX/MCP when speed intervention is active and plan is active. In the ECON mode the command speed is a FMC computed value. Pilot-entry of speed and/or Mach results in a change to Selected Speed Climb (SEL SPD).

4.Speed Restriction (SPD REST) The speed restriction line displays the speed restriction/altitude from one of the following sources: • a default speed of 250 knots and 10,000 • displays XXX/FLAPS if the active speed restriction is lower than the minimum

speed for the selected flap setting

Dashes displayed if no active speed restriction exists.

The speed restriction line allows for entry or deletion of a CAS speed restriction to an altitude less than the cruise altitude. Valid entries for speed restriction consist of a valid speed followed by “/” and a valid altitude. Valid altitude entries are standard altitude format entries that are at or above the current aircraft altitude and below the cruise altitude. FLAPS speed may not be deleted or modified.

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 FMC Cruise Section 42

Introduction The cruise phase automatically begins when the top of climb is reached.

During cruise, the primary FMC pages are: • RTE LEGS • PROGRESS • CRZ.

The RTE LEGS pages are used to manage route restrictions and modify the route. The PROGRESS pages display flight progress information. RTA requirements are also specified on the PROGRESS pages. The CRZ pages display VNAV related information. Other pages include: • POS REF page – verifies the FMC position (refer to Section 40 of this chapter) • POS SHIFT page – permits selection of preferred position from list of references • RTE DATA page – displays progress data for each waypoint on the RTE LEGS

page. Displays wind data for cruise waypoints. • REF NAV DATA page – displays information about waypoints, navaids, airports, or

runways • LATERAL OFFSET page – permits selection of a route offset • FIX INFO page – displays information about waypoints, and can be used to create

new waypoints and fixes • SELECT DESIRED WAYPOINT page – permits selection of the desired waypoint

from a list of duplicate named waypoints • NAV STATUS page – displays information about available navigation aids.

LNAV Modifications This section presents the normal techniques for modifying the route. The modifications include: • adding and deleting waypoints • resequencing waypoints

• linking discontinuities • intercepting a course.

Adding Waypoints A waypoint can be added to the route whenever necessary.

The new waypoint must first be placed into the CDU scratchpad. Existing waypoints can be copied from a RTE LEGS page into the scratchpad by pushing the LSK adjacent to the desired waypoint.

The new waypoint is then inserted into the route at the desired sequence point by pushing the LSK adjacent to the desired location for the new waypoint. The new entry automatically links to the preceding waypoint via a direct route. Placing the new waypoint into the active waypoint line is a special case and is discussed under Intercept Course in this section.

All new waypoints cause a route discontinuity between the new waypoint and the

Page 448: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Flight Management, Navigation Operation Manual FMC Cruise

The iFly Developer Team Page 442

following waypoint.

1.Page Title When the page is modified, MOD appears in front of the title. The MOD title also shows that the modifications are not yet executed and can be removed using the ERASE prompt.

2.Modified Waypoint N34E112 waypoint is entered into the route between HFE and ZHO. This modification creates a route discontinuity.

3.Discontinuity Waypoint Box prompts indicate the requirement to link the route by entering a route waypoint into the discontinuity waypoint position.

4.ERASE The ERASE prompt is displayed when the first modification is entered. The prompt remains on the page until the modifications are erased or executed.

Push – removes all modifications and restores all active data.

5.Discontinuity Header Indicates that the route is not continuous.

Deleting Waypoints Waypoints can be removed from the RTE LEGS page. There are two normal methods to remove a waypoint: • delete the waypoint using the DEL function key. • resequence the route by moving a down–route waypoint up in the sequence and

automatically removing all waypoints that are between.

During the deletion process, all of the route prior to the deletion point remains unchanged. Removing a waypoint using the DEL function key causes a route discontinuity to replace the deleted waypoint.

1.Active Route The existing route shows CD followed by DSH02, and GS.

2.DELETE Entry Push the DEL key to arm the delete function. DELETE is displayed in the scratchpad.

3.Delete CD With DELETE displayed in the scratchpad, push the line select key left of CD to delete the waypoint. Box prompts replace CD and a route discontinuity follows the box prompts.

1.Active Route The existing route shows DSH01 followed by CD, DSH02, and GS. The airplane must fly direct from WY to CD. The CD waypoint is copied into the scratchpad.

2.Resequence BANDR CD is transferred to the waypoint following WY. DSH01 is removed, and the route remains continuous.

Removing Discontinuities A discontinuity exists when the FMC is unable to determine the route leg following a waypoint. Discontinuities are removed by linking the route segment following the discontinuity to the route segment preceding the discontinuity. The next desired waypoint from the subsequent route is copied into the CDU scratchpad and entered into the discontinuity, just as when adding a waypoint.

1.ROUTE DISCONTINUITY The active route shows a discontinuity. The airplane must fly direct from WY to CD. The CD waypoint is copied into the scratchpad in preparation to remove the discontinuity. Any waypoint from the route can be copied into the scratchpad to remove the discontinuity.

2.Continuous Route CD is copied into the box prompts to remove the discontinuity. Entering a waypoint which does not already exist on the route moves the discontinuity one waypoint farther down the route.

2.Intercept Course (INTC CRS) Displayed whenever the active waypoint name is modified.

Valid input is any course from 000 through 360. May be changed until executed.

Push - • selects entry as intercept course to active waypoint • displays entry or current route course as course to active waypoint

3.Leg Direction Displays the course inbound to the active waypoint after selecting the course displayed in the INTC CRS line.

Select Desired Waypoint Page The SELECT DESIRED WPT page is automatically accessed when an ambiguity occurs in the entry of a navigation database fix, such as multiple waypoints, NDBs and VORs existing with the same identifier. The SELECT DESIRED WPT page is displayed to allow the pilot to select the desired navigation database fix.

Displayed waypoints are generally displayed by increasing distance from the aircraft. However, if the entry is made on the RTE or RTE LEGS pages, the waypoint are displayed by increasing distance from the fix prior to the entry position.

CAUTION: If the entry is distance ordered from the aircraft and aircraft position is not valid, the waypoints appear in the order they are stored in the Navigation Database. Selection of a waypoint is made by pushing the adjacent LSK, either left or right. Line selection results in returning to the page from which this page was accessed. The

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 FMC Descent and Approach Section 43

Introduction The descent phase begins at the top of descent point and continues to the end of descent point. Planning for the descent phase begins during cruise. The approach phase begins at the end of descent point and continues to touchdown or go–around.

Early Descent Early descent may be commenced prior to reaching the top of descent by using the DES NOW prompt.

Descent During descent, LNAV progress is managed using the RTE LEGS and PROGRESS pages, as in the cruise phase. VNAV descent management is accomplished primarily on the DES page.

Descent Page (During Cruise) The DES page is used by the flight crew to evaluate or revise the descent path. Available speeds are economy and selected speeds. Descent modes are economy (ECON) path or speed and manual path or speed. The default VNAV descent mode is ECON PATH. The page title reflects the VNAV descent mode. The path mode controls descent to fly a vertical path which complies with altitude and speed restrictions in the flight plan. The speed mode controls descent at a fixed speed and complies with altitude and speed restrictions in the flight plan.

Flight Management, Navigation Chapter 11 FMC Messages Section 60

Introduction The FMC shows alerting or advisory messages when there is a condition that degrades the system. The FMCS also shows entry error.

FMC messages show in the CDU scratchpad. The messages are categorized as: • alerting messages • entry error messages • advisory messages.

The FMC messages are shown according to their level of importance. Alerting messages are most important, followed by entry error messages. Advisory messages are least important. If multiple messages exist, a less important message replaces another message in the scratchpad when the CLR key is pushed or the condition is corrected.

The amber FMC alert light on each pilot’s instrument panel illuminates when there is an FMC alerting message. All FMC messages illuminate the CDU message (MSG) light. Clear the message or correct the condition to cancel the message.

FMC Alerting Messages Alerting messages show an FMC condition that must be shown to the flight crew and corrected before further FMC operation is advisable or possible.

Fuel Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 494

Fuel Chapter 12 System Description Section 20

Introduction The fuel system supplies fuel to the engines and the APU. Fuel is contained in three tanks located within the wings and wing center section.

[Option – BBJ/BBJ2/BBJ3] Auxiliary fuel tanks are located in the forward and aft cargo compartments.

Fuel Feed Both engines are normally pressure fed from the center tank until the center tank quantity decreases to near zero. The engines are normally then pressure fed from their respective main tanks.

Fuel Pumps Each fuel tank uses two AC powered fuel pumps. Center tank pumps produce higher pressure than main tank pumps. This ensures that center tank fuel is used before main tank fuel, even though all fuel pumps are operating.

Fuel Crossfeed The engine fuel manifolds are interconnected by use of the crossfeed valve. The valve is DC motor operated from the battery bus.

Fuel pressure can be provided from a main tank with operating fuel pumps to both engines by opening the fuel crossfeed valve.

Fuel Temperature The FUEL TEMP indicator located on the fuel control panel displays fuel temperature. A sensor in main tank No. 1 allows monitoring of fuel temperature. The temperature indicating system uses AC electrical power.

APU Fuel Feed When AC fuel pumps are operating, fuel for the APU is supplied from the left side of the fuel manifold. If the AC fuel pumps are not operating, fuel is suction fed from main tank No. 1.

Fuel Quantity Indication The fuel quantity indication system calculates the usable fuel quantity in each tank. The fuel quantity in each tank is displayed on the upper display unit and on the fueling station panel.

Auxiliary Fuel System [Option – BBJ/BBJ2/BBJ3] The Auxiliary Fuel System provides for extended range operations. Auxiliary fuel

Page 501: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Fuel Operation Manual System Description

tanks are located in the cargo compartments. Controls for the auxiliary fuel system are located on the Forward Overhead Panel. Auxiliary fuel quantities are displayed on the Auxiliary Fuel Cockpit Display Panels. Auxiliary fuel quantity is included in the airplane total fuel quantity sent to the FMC for fuel computations.

Auxiliary Fuel System Operation During normal operation, fuel is transferred from the auxiliary fuel tanks into the center fuel tank. This transfer is accomplished using pressurized air from the cabin. If the cabin pressure is not adequate for fuel transfer, bleed air can be selected for fuel transfer. The bleed air valves cycle open and closed to regulate the bleed air pressure to the auxiliary fuel tanks.

Landing Gear Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 509

Landing Gear Chapter 14 System Description Section 20

Introduction The airplane has two main landing gears and a single nose gear. Each main gear is a conventional two–wheel landing gear unit. The nose gear is a conventional steerable two–wheel unit.

Landing Gear Operation The landing gears are controlled by the LANDING GEAR lever. On the ground, the landing gear lever is locked, prevents the LANDING GEAR lever from moving to the up position.

Landing Gear Retraction When the LANDING GEAR lever is moved to UP, the landing gear begins to retract.

Hydraulic pressure is removed from the landing gear system with the LANDING GEAR lever in the OFF position.

Landing Gear Extension When the LANDING GEAR lever is moved to DN, hydraulic system A pressure is used to release the uplocks. The landing gear extends by hydraulic pressure.

Brake System Each main gear wheel has a multi–disc hydraulic powered brake. The brake pedals provide independent control of the left and right brakes. The nose wheels have no brakes. The brake system includes: • normal brake system • alternate brake system • brake accumulator

• autobrake system • parking brake

Normal Brake System The normal brake system is powered by hydraulic system B.

Alternate Brake System The alternate brake system is powered by hydraulic system A. If hydraulic system B is low or fails, hydraulic system A automatically supplies pressure to the alternate brake system.

Brake Accumulator The brake accumulator is pressurized by hydraulic system B. If both normal and alternate brake system pressure is lost, trapped hydraulic pressure in the brake accumulator can still provide several braking applications or parking brake application.

Page 516: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Landing Gear Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 510

Autobrake System The autobrake system uses hydraulic system B pressure to provide maximum deceleration for rejected takeoff and automatic braking at preselected deceleration rates immediately after touchdown. The system operates only when the normal brake system is functioning.

Parking Brake The parking brake can be set with either A or B hydraulic systems pressurized. If A and B hydraulic systems are not pressurized, parking brake pressure is maintained by the brake accumulator. Accumulator pressure is shown on the HYD BRAKE PRESS indicator.

The TAKEOFF CONFIG lights illuminate and the takeoff configuration warning horn sounds if either forward thrust lever is advanced for takeoff with the parking brake set.

Warning Systems Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 518

Warning Systems Chapter 15 System Description Section 20

Introduction Aural and visual warning signals alert the flight crew to conditions requiring action or caution in the operation of the airplane.

Conditions which require the immediate attention of the flight crew are indicated by red warning lights. These lights indicate engine, cargo, or APU fires; autopilot, autothrottle disconnects; and landing gear unsafe conditions.

Conditions which require the timely attention of the flight crew are indicated by amber caution lights.

Blue lights inform the flight crew of electrical power availability, valve position, and equipment status. Blue lights are for information and do not require immediate flight crew attention.

Green lights indicate a fully extended configuration, e.g., landing gear and leading edge devices.

Generally, aurals automatically silence when the associated non–normal condition no longer exists.

Master Fire Warning Lights Two master FIRE WARN lights illuminate when any fire warning condition occurs. The lights remain illuminated as long as the condition exists. Pushing either master FIRE WARN light or fire warning bell cutout switch extinguishes both lights, silences the fire warning bell. Further information appears in the Fire Protection chapter.

Master Caution Lights Two MASTER CAUTION lights illuminate when any caution occurs. The lights remain illuminated as long as the caution condition exists, or until the crew resets the system. Pushing either MASTER CAUTION light extinguishes both lights. Pushing either annunciator light panel recalls all existing fault annunciations.

System Annunciator Lights Two system annunciator light panels are located on the glare shield. The annunciator light panels include only those systems located on the forward overhead, aft overhead, and fire control panels. If a caution condition exists, the appropriate system annunciator(s) and MASTER CAUTION lights illuminate.

Warning Systems Intermittent Cabin Altitude/Configuration Warning The takeoff configuration warning is armed when the airplane is on the ground and either or both forward thrust levers are advanced for takeoff. An intermittent warning horn sounds if: • trailing edge flaps are not in the flaps 1 through 25 takeoff range, or

Page 525: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Warning Systems Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 519

• speed brake lever is not in the DOWN position, or • parking brake is set, or. • stabilizer trim not set in the takeoff range.

The Cabin Altitude Warning Horn activates when cabin altitude exceeds 10,000 feet. An intermittent warning horn is heard. The Cabin Altitude Warning Horn may be silenced by momentarily pressing the ALT HORN CUTOUT switch on the Cabin Altitude Panel.

Landing Gear Configuration Warnings Visual indications and aural warnings of landing gear position are provided by the landing gear indicator lights and landing gear warning horn.

Visual Indications The landing gear indication lights are activated by signals from each gear, the LANDING GEAR lever, and the forward thrust lever position as follows:

Green light illuminated – landing gear is down and locked.

Red light illuminated – • landing gear is not down and locked. • landing gear is in disagreement with LANDING GEAR lever position.

All lights extinguished – landing gear is up and locked with the LANDING GEAR lever UP or OFF.

Aural Indications A steady warning horn is provided to alert the flight crew whenever a landing is attempted and any gear is not down and locked.

Mach/Airspeed Warning System The Mach/airspeed warning system provides a distinct aural warning, a clacker, any time the maximum operating airspeed of Vmo/Mmo is exceeded. The warning clackers can be silenced only by reducing airspeed below Vmo/Mmo.

Altitude Alerting System [Option – EFIS/MAP] Altitude alerting occurs when approaching or departing the MCP–selected altitude. Altitude alerting is inhibited when trailing edge flaps are extended to 25 or greater, or while G/S is captured.

Acquisition Alerting 900 feet before reaching the selected altitude, both ALT ALERT annunciations show and a momentary tone sounds. At 300 feet from selected altitude, the ALT ALERT annunciations no longer show.

Deviation Alerting When deviating by 300 feet from the selected altitude, a momentary tone sounds and the ALT ALERT annunciations flash. Flashing continues until: • altitude deviation becomes less than 300 feet

Page 526: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Warning Systems Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 520

• altitude deviation becomes more than 900 feet • a new altitude is selected.

Altitude Alerting System [Option – PFD/ND] Altitude alerting occurs when approaching or departing the MCP–selected altitude. Altitude alerting is inhibited when trailing edge flaps are extended to 25 or greater, or while G/S is captured.

Acquisition Alerting 900 feet before reaching the selected altitude, a white box shows around the selected altitude display and the box around the current altitude becomes bold. A momentary tone sounds. At 300 feet from selected altitude, the selected altitude box no longer shows.

Deviation Alerting When deviating by 300 feet from the selected altitude, a momentary tone sounds and the current altitude box turns amber and begins to flash. The amber flashing continues until: • altitude deviation becomes less than 300 feet • altitude deviation becomes more than 900 feet • a new altitude is selected.

Ground Proximity Warning System The GPWS gives the pilots aural and visual warnings of unsafe conditions. The warnings continue until the pilots correct the condition. The system operates when the airplane is less than 2450 feet above the ground.

These are the GPWS modes: • Mode 1 – Large descent rates • Mode 2 – Too much of a closure rate when approaching terrain that is rising • Mode 3 – Too much altitude loss during climb phase when the airplane is not in the

landing configuration • Mode 4 – Not enough terrain clearance • Mode 5 – Too much deviation below the glideslope • Mode 6 – Aural callouts when the airplane descends through selected radio • Mode 7 – Warning for windshear conditions.

Mode 1 Mode 1 alert conditions and warning conditions can occur between 2450 feet and 10 feet radio altitude. The type of annunciation depends on the rate of descent and the radio altitude. The first annunciation is a caution. If the rate of descent does not decrease, the annunciation changes to a warning.

The alert condition gives the aural message, SINK RATE and makes the PULL UP display on the attitude indication. If the descent rate does not decrease, the alert condition changes to a warning condition.

The warning condition makes the red PULL UP warning on the attitude indication and

Page 527: operations manualfiles.100megabyte.com/ifly/Operations Manual.pdfoperations manual

Warning Systems Operation Manual System Description

The iFly Developer Team Page 521

gives the aural message, WHOOP WHOOP PULL UP.

Mode 2 Mode 2 supplies alerts and warnings when the closure rate to the terrain is too large. Mode 2 has two submodes, mode 2A and mode 2B.

Mode 2A Mode 2A occurs for a large closure rate if the flaps are not in the landing configuration and glideslope deviation is more than 2 dots. Flaps 30 or more is a landing configuration. Mode 2A can have two alert levels, a caution condition or a warning condition.

Mode 2A annunciations occur between 1650 feet radio altitude and 30 feet radio altitude for airspeed less than 220 knots. The top limit increases to 2450 feet radio altitude for airspeed between 220 knots and 310 knots.

If the terrain closure is too large, the GPWS gives the TERRAIN aural caution message twice and PULL UP shows on the primary flight display (PFD).

If the condition is not corrected, the caution aural message changes to the warning WHOOP WHOOP PULL UP message and PULL UP still shows on the PFD.

Mode 2B Mode 2B gives alerts for a large closure rate if the flaps are in the landing configuration (flaps 30 or more). Mode 2B can have a caution condition or a warning condition.

Mode 2B annunciations can occur between 789 feet radio altitude and 30 feet radio altitude. The lower limit is between 30 feet and 600 feet radio altitude. The GPWS uses flap configuration and altitude descent rate to calculate the lower limit.

If the terrain closure is excessive, the GPWS gives the TERRAIN aural caution message repeatedly. If this condition lasts for more than 1.6 seconds, the GPWS gives the WHOOP WHOOP PULL UP aural warning message and a PULL UP annunciation on the PFD. If the terrain closure is excessive and the landing gear is extended, the PULL UP aural warning message is replaced with the TERRAIN aural caution message.

Mode 3 Mode 3 supplies alerts for a large altitude loss during takeoff or during a missed approach with the flaps not in the landing configuration (landing configuration for the flaps is 30 units or more) or landing gear not down.

When there is a GPWS mode 3 alert, the GPWS gives the aural message, DONT SINK. The PFD shows the message, PULL UP.

Mode 4 Mode 4 supplies alerts when the airplane is too close to the terrain and the landing

gear or flaps are not in the landing configuration. Mode 4 alerts occur between 1000 feet and 30 feet. The altitude limits for mode 4A and mode 4B are lower at low airspeed. Mode 4 has two submodes (4A and 4B).

Mode 4A The Mode 4A alert occurs if the landing gear is not down below the altitude limit. The mode 4A altitude limit is 500 feet when the airspeed is less than 190 knots and it is 1000 feet at high airspeed. The mode 4A aural message TOO LOW GEAR changes to the aural message TOO LOW TERRAIN when the airspeed is more than 190 knots.

Mode 4B The Mode 4B alert occurs if the landing gear is down and the flaps are not in a landing configuration below the altitude limit. The Mode 4B altitude limit is 245 feet when the airspeed is less than 159 knots and it is 1000 feet at high airspeed. The mode 4B aural message TOO LOW FLAPS changes to the aural message TOO LOW TERRAIN when the airspeed is more than 159 knots.

Mode 5 The GPWS gives a mode 5 alert when the airplane goes below the glideslope during approach if the landing gear is down.

Mode 5 alerts can occur between 1000 and 30 feet radio altitude. The interval between aural messages depends on altitude and glideslope deviation. Low volume audio occurs below 1000 feet down to 30 feet when the deviation is more than 1.3 dots. Normal volume audio occurs below 300 feet when the deviation is more than 2 dots.

Mode 6 The GPWS mode 6 supplies aural callouts when the airplane descends through set altitudes with the landing gear down. These are the options available for mode 6: • Altitude callouts • Minimums callout • Approaching minimums callout • Bank angle (roll alert) callout.

Altitude callouts start at 2500 feet. At 2500 feet, the GPWS gives the TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED aural callout.

The minimums callout gives an aural callout when the airplane descends through the decision height altitude set on the EFIS control panels. The GPWS can give aural callout MINIMUMS for decision height.

There is also an approaching minimums callout that tells the pilots when the airplane is near the decision height set on the EFIS control panel. The callout normally comes on when the airplane altitude is 80 feet above the decision height. The aural callout for this option is APPROACHING MINIMUMS.

Mode 6 bank angle callouts occur when the airplane bank angle is more than 10 degrees between 30 feet and 130 feet altitude. Above 130 feet, the callout occurs at 35 degrees, 40 degrees, and 45 degrees. The aural message is BANK ANGLE, BANK ANGLE.

Mode 7 The GPWS gives mode 7 warnings when there are horizontal and vertical windshear conditions during approach or takeoff.

Windshear is the effect of large volumes of air that change direction rapidly. The most dangerous type of windshear is the microburst. When the airplane is near the terrain, a downward microburst gives the pilots very little time to react to the windshear effects.

The initial effects on an airplane when it encounters the microburst are an increase in airspeed and lift. Because of the increased lift, the airplane increases altitude.

As the airplane continues through the microburst, the effects rapidly change to a loss in airspeed and lift. The airplane altitude now rapidly decreases.

For mode 7 warnings, the GPWS gives the aural message WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR with a siren. The red WINDSHEAR message show on the primary flight displays. Mode 7 warnings have the highest priority.

Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) The traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS) helps the flight crew maintain safe air traffic separation from other ATC transponder equipped airplanes. TCAS is an airborne system and operates independently of the ground-based ATC system.

A traffic advisory (TA) is generated when the other airplane is approximately 40 seconds from the point of closest approach. If the other airplane continues to close, a resolution advisory (RA) is generated when the other airplane is approximately 25 seconds from the point of closest approach. The RA provides aural warning and guidance as well as maneuver guidance to maintain or increase separation from the traffic.

Advisories and Displays Annunciations associated with TCAS and the traffic displays are discussed further in Chapter 10.

TAs are indicated by the aural “TRAFFIC, TRAFFIC” which sounds once. The TRAFFIC annunciation appears on the navigation display. The TA symbol appears at the proper range and relative bearing of the other airplane. Altitude and vertical motion are included with the symbol.

RAs are indicated by one or more aural listed in the RA aural table. The TRAFFIC annunciation and RA symbol which depicts the traffic’s relative bearing, range, altitude, and vertical motion are on the navigation display similar to the TA symbol.

Additional symbols are proximate traffic and other traffic. Proximate traffic is within six miles and 1200 feet vertically, but is not expected to cause a TA or RA alert. Other traffic is beyond the six mile and 1200 feet vertical criteria.

If the range of the navigation display does not permit the display of a TA or RA an OFFSCALE annunciation appears on the navigation display.

Vertical motion information is indicated by an arrow depicting a climb or descent if a change of greater than 500 feet per minute is detected.

TCAS display automatically shows when: • the transponder mode selector is in TA ONLY or TA/RA, and • a TCAS TA or RA occurs, and • neither pilot has the TCAS (TFC) display selected, and • in MAP, center MAP, VOR, or APP modes.

Inhibits INCREASE DESCENT RAs are inhibited below approximately 1,500 feet radio altitude.

DESCEND RAs are inhibited below approximately 1,100 feet radio altitude.

RAs are inhibited below approximately 1,000 feet radio altitude. Below 1,000 feet when the TA/RA mode is selected on the transponder panel, TA only mode is enabled automatically and the TCAS message TA ONLY displays on the ND.

All TCAS voice annunciations are inhibited below approximately 500 feet radio altitude.

Mode Control The TCAS operating mode is controlled from the TCAS/ATC transponder panel. TCAS is normally operated in the TA/RA mode.

Resolution Advisory Aurals The following table identifies the possible callouts associated with RAs and the vertical restrictions or maneuver recommended in each case.

AURAL ALERTS VERTICAL RESTRICTIONS/MANEUVER

MONITOR VERTICAL SPEED MAINTAIN VERTICAL SPEED, MAINTAIN MAINTAIN VERTICAL SPEED, CROSSING MAINTAIN

Present pitch attitude is outside the RA pitch command area. Keep pitch attitude away from red area.

CLIMB, CLIMB The flight crew must climb at a rate to avoid the preventive up advisory.

DESCEND, DESCEND The flight crew must descend at a rate to avoid the preventive down advisories.

ADJUST VERTICAL SPEED, ADJUST

The flight crew must reduce the rate of climb to avoid the preventive down advisory, or reduce the rate of descent to avoid the preventive up advisory.

CLIMB, CROSSING CLIMB, CLIMB, CROSSING CLIMB

The flight crew must climb at a rate to avoid the preventive up advisory. The flight path crosses through the flight path of the threat.

DESCEND, CROSSING DESCEND DESCEND, CROSSING DESCEND

The flight crew must descend at a rate to avoid the preventive down advisory. The flight path crosses through the flight path of the threat.

INCREASE CLIMB, INCREASE CLIMB

This follows the CLIMB advisory. The range of advised climb rates shifts to tell the flight crew to increase the climb rate.

INCREASE DESCENT, INCREASE DESCENT

This follows the DESCEND advisory. The range of advised descent rates shifts to tell the flight crew to increase the descent rate.

CLIMB – CLIMB NOW, CLIMB – CLIMB NOW

This follows the DESCEND advisory. A climb is now necessary to give safe vertical separation.

DESCEND – DESCEND NOW, DESCEND – DESCEND NOW

This follows the CLIMB advisory. A descent is now necessary to give safe vertical separation.

CLEAR OF CONFLICT RA encounter terminated. Maneuver guidance no longer displayed.
